      I’m a little surprised they didn’t pick Discourse.

        I think Flarum and NodeBB are better that Discourse. Discourse is a Ruby app which makes it a pain to deploy.

        I used to be a developer on SMF, but these days I see the older forum systems like phpBB, SMF, etc. as “previous generation”.

        I believe they had a Discourse blog before but they removed it. I’m assuming their past experience made them not want to use it?
