Does Discourse have searchable history?
Discord is out not because it's proprietary, but because it doesn't have usable history. They could be GPL and they'd still be bad.
- chuckadams 2y agoOf course Discourse is searchable, it wouldn't be much of a discussion board if it wasn't. Many Discourse-based fora I've been on even do a live search as you type the subject of a post, something that turns out really handy for community support boards. Discord's lack of searchability is certainly a biggie, but having all history locked away and unexportable in any way is the worst part of it. And damn the two similar names are confusing, I find myself typing one when I meant the other...
- nottorp 2y agoAh so Discourse is ... a forum software? Got it :)
