Yeah, this is absolutely representative of some points I’ve tried to make before about the echo chamber of both Meta itself and CDCK’s existing paying customers. Obviously you want to make your existing customers happy, but it’s also clear that there’s a much larger overall market for “community/discussion platforms” that is being served by a bunch of other players, some of which are definitely doing things that help them get a sale instead of Discourse. One of those things may well be WYSIWYG, but it’s just part of a broader issue in my view. Overall design and theming is another, which I mentioned already above, but bears repeating in this separate context: Relative lack of themes - am I missing something?
