Hey HN - sorry for the amateur website. We had recently started building towards the idea when a friend notified me that a couple discussions around this subject of community forums vs Discord happened here so I figured I would jump in and put this out here while it is top of mind.

Discord now has a stronghold on community platforms. The reason it is valued are two-fold: - Quick and easy to spin up - Pushes for noise and activity rather than benefit or knowledge (which companies who wanna boast numbers value)

We would like to bring back the good old fashioned community forums with a couple twists: - As much spam-free as possible through AI flagging (used to be a problem) - Chat baked inside (chatrooms being optional under discussions) - Multi-tenant authentication (one registration will be enough to join other community forum instances)

We are looking to talk to more people and would love to hear critique about this. All feedback is super welcome.
