I like the UI a lot; how does the site fare as a long-form discussion place (capturing the forum-like qualities of old.reddit)? I am also interested in native LaTeX rendering in posts and comments; I have not found this anywhere, and lurking at r/math, r/physics and r/compsci has convinced me LaTeX rendering a la mathstodon.xyz is essential for math/physics communities.
- dsir 3y agoAppreciate the feedback. So within each community, the admin can create an unlimited amount of different discussion boards related to the niche of the community. Each post within a board has threaded comment trees similar to reddit where it lends well to long form. We felt that in order to fully capture each aspect of the community space, we needed to include each different type of communication tool. What I mean by that is we have a twitch style IM chatroom, Discord style voice rooms, and Reddit style discussion boards for longer form communication. I'm not familiar with LaTeX rendering, but will definitely check it out to see if it's something that we could integrate into our platform.
