    Edited: I liked the reddit format over typical Forums (not reddit itself)

    Edited: I do miss the ease of q/a from reddit vs a typical forum. Plus the agility on mobile devices

    (2023-06-22, 02:41 PM)biscuit Wrote: Something that I will miss is comment voting. On smaller forum threads, it's quick and easy to speed through and find an answer, but on multiple-page threads with an answer buried on page 17 it becomes tedious.

    With votes it would normally bring relevant answer(s) to the top, albeit if the community is to be trusted and hasn't gone full Eternal-September.

    We have three main points to try to mitigate this:

    First, for troubleshooting threads we have the "Answer" plugin. This allows the OP or a moderator to select a question as the answer to their thread (a la StackExchange), and a link to the answer will show as a button under the OP in addition to the thread itself being marked SOLVED. So, ideally, even if a thread ends up being 17 pages, there's a quick way to jump from the OP to the accepted answer.

    The second is less relevant to the long threads, but is of course the reputation system. We encourage everyone to give reputation awards to people who genuinely help them, so that the community can over time self-select for the best people to trust answers from.

    Finally, and less automated, but the mods should be able to set custom titles for people. While we're still in early days this will be less relevant until the community really establishes itself, but over time we can ensure that people get "flared" (to use the Reddit terminology) as helpful contributors or subject matter experts in particular areas as warranted.
