This topic will house the Discourse Design Team’s current experiments running on Meta. We will document what the current running experiments are here in this topic in a table.
After a maximum of 4 weeks, every design experiment will get a final decision from our team:
- Promote to core, or
- Abandon, or
- Ship in dedicated theme component
Please feel free to let us know what you think of any of the ongoing experiments we are currently working on. As discussion takes place, we will separate the conversation into topics of their own.
