In a discussion titled ‘Where can I view newly added Discourse Customer?’, Jarvis asks how to see more than the 5 customers displayed per category on the Discourse customers page, especially newer tech brands like Zoom, OpenAI, and Unreal Engine. nat asks for the reason behind the request, to which Jarvis replies it’s for research — specifically to find popular brand forums using Discourse to gather user feedback for publishing on their website. Heliosurge clarifies that many self-hosted or paid forums don’t publicly disclose their use of Discourse, and HAWK adds that most Enterprise customers are under NDAs, so they can’t be publicly listed. Falco suggests a third-party tool (BuiltWith) but notes it requires a $200 subscription. merefield offers a Google search trick using Discourse’s default FAQ text to find public forums. Don confirms Blizzard uses Discourse. ondrej lists several large Discourse-powered communities, including Ghost, SketchUp, Roblox, Twitter, and Microsoft Flight Simulator. Jarvis clarifies they’re seeking newer, high-traffic forums from major brands like NVIDIA or Microsoft, and questions the lack of trust levels or private lounges for developer access. Jagster questions the relevance of trust levels and suggests direct contact via email, noting the thread may be drifting off-topic.
These details may the be a bit difficult as many self hosted and even some paid hosted sites may not advertise if using Discourse or not. Really up to each forum to choose.
However the team may have some kind of details from when they received an award iirc last year about their rapid growth.
Thanks for the answer. I mean, they are public forums. I just wanna know some well-known brand names who use discourse as their forum. Like Unreal engine, openai, zoom
On the gaming tab category. I never heard other 4 brands/products. Just wanna see big names like Ubisoft, Blizzard, Electronic Arts etc
So, I am a publisher. I use forums to find out the problems of their product. Most forums have valuable answers, which I publish on my website.
Looking for popular brand forums that use discourse. They have a very large number of users. Means more audience for my website. Thats is the only reason.
The link you provided is great, but it requires a subscription, which is 200 USD, so I couldnt download the whole data.
I think @Canapin suggested searching on the standard FAQ text to find Discourse forums, e.g.:
Obviously that will not restrict you to CDCK hosted sites, just those sites who’ve retained that part of the standard FAQ included out of the box and are public.
Here are some large communities I found by looking around. I don’t know which ones, if any are hosted by Discourse but you could add some of these to your list?
I check microsoft community everyday too. They have 14 big products with millions of post. Flight Simulator Game I am not that interested. Also they are 10 years old forum looking for some new popular ones.
Nvdia also really big and great community. But they just have one trust level.
