Discourse Basic Editor

It could most certainly be done. I am maybe 80% there. The thing is: I don’t care enough to finish it. Discourse is more like a company product and not like an open source project. People here are mostly company employees or want to use discourse for their own projects. So the energy just isn’t there. Maybe one day I am really bored I will finish it just to prove a point.

Don’t give up just yet! I think I can speak for many other users here when I say that this plugin would be an absolute breakthrough for Discourse and change everything, especially in certain use cases. I highly encourage you to continue and finish the last mile.

Crowd funding within Meta is a bit of a tricky area, however. Pavilion is looking at ways to make this more straightforward.

Could you elaborate on that? I might have a need for that, so I’m very interested in what you have to say. You have my full attention now…

@oshyan

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.

You’re not alone. Check out this topic.

How to make contributing to Meta more enjoyable?

I’ve reported/confirmed three albeit minor bugs in the last three weeks - not any acknowledgement that the posts have even been read by a team member … they’ll edit my sarcy gif fast enough though … I was thinking about following the Discourse Support Training Program … set up a sandbox, tried to install locally too, asking questions, trying to be helpful … this has just sucked out all the enthusiasm I’ve got.
