What do you think of Discourse?

There’s a new forum player in town and it’s called Discourse.

I’ve been active on http://meta.discourse.com lately and have grown to enjoy it. It’s simple and fast.

If you want to play around with it, check out http://try.discourse.org/

It looks … interesting.  I’m not sure if I like it or not.  It’s not what I’m used to … and human nature says that change is bad.  ;)

It’s certainly different but I find that I’m more engaged while using it.

Other Discourse awesomeness:

• Search is fast and useful
• Email integration is second to none. You can actually respond to threads & PMs via email.
• Clutter free

Disadvantages:

• It focuses away from multiple levels of forum categorization like we have here.
