    As a follow-up to https://mastodon.social/@danluu/109798007902048311, I wonder why there isn't a serious, well-funded, attempt to create a modern forum

    If you look at Wikipedia's list of forum software, it's all ancient except discourse, and discourse seems unlikely to ever be something great for users

    Its performance is famously terrible. People often point out how unusable it is unless you have a fast phone and the founder's response to this has been to rant about how Qualcomm sucks and need to make faster processors

      Attached: 4 images It's amazing how often, when I look into why something turned to junk (consumer products, tools, etc.), it turns out that it's because a PE firm or a PE-like software company acquired the thing and then made an extremely short-term optimized move that wiped out most of the value and potential revenue of the thing, e.g., I was looking into why a formerly active automotive forum is now a ghost town and it turned out they got bought by VerticalScope, which has apparently killed ~1k forums?
