A few things I noticed right away:
On my screen, three items are listed horizontally. Since there are 10 results listed per page, it visually looks like I'm at the end of the results list, but there are still more pages to go. A quick fix for this would be to provide 12 results per page since that can be divided into columns of 2, 3, or 4 without leaving any blank spots at the end of a page if there are still more results (assuming that there are ways to display anything other than 3 entries per row, which doesn't seem to be the case at this time)
The first several results I've tried were not web forums, but were either news sites or posting about public lectures
There are a few duplicate entries, eg: delta-forum.ru
None of the Title or Text fields are filled out. Clicking on More Info goes to a 404 for every entry. The Blog link returns an HTTP 502
The filters aren't finished, which would be useful to only include languages that I know, meaning that I'd be able to interact with the forums
Overall, I love the concept, but this is still quite early. It seems like you're indexing any site with "forum" in the name. I only found one web forum out of a dozen attempts and it wasn't in English (maybe adding a language filter would be helpful). At the moment, I'd have better results from browsing something like this:
https://xenforo.com/community/forums/forum-showcase-and-critiques.53/ https://xenforo.com/community/forums/forum-showcase-and-crit...
I hope you keep going with this project because I would love to find more communities to join
- Lightninging 4y agoThank you for taking the time to test the site and leaving thoughtful advice. Sounds like there's a lot more to do. Quality control if definitely something I need to research more. And 12 items per page is great advice. Thanks for sharing the link also, and I hope to build something useful!
