We’ve had a fantastic year at Discourse, growing our team to 20 21 people. (There’s also something exciting and major happening early in 2018 that we’ve worked hard on for the last six months that we can’t quite announce yet. But trust me when I say we are very excited!) Starting from our initial prototype…
Congratulations and well done!! 
As a forum admin for over 10 years - Discourse is by far my favourite forum platform now, and I love seeing it go from strength to strength and seeing the platform and team evolve and grow.
I look forward to hearing your major announcement for 2018 and wish you all the best!
Thank you and well done for all those initiatives!!
cant like this enough!!!
im so grateful for the team and the product… it’s a huge part of what i do now and my professional future! in short… it couldn’t have been possible without discourse!
you (the discourse team) are changing lives! this isnt hyperbole… this is fact.
Congratulations and well done discourse team. That is 55K in donations for the Open Source software alone.
The diversity in the selection of organizations to support is great.
Bravo! We love Discourse and the team
go go go
WOooOoo!!! 
What an amazing example of the power and positivity of open-source. Richard Stallman must be one happy camper.
Thank you for your excellent work, and your commitment to growth…
How did I not see this until now!? This. Is Awesome! 
Bravo @codinghorror and team.
This is so inspiring! Congrats and thank you for setting a great example!
Am I the only one holding their breath?
Nope, the entire Discourse team is turning blue.
Great corporate responsibility guys!

È ancora qualcosa che Discourse sta facendo? Se sì, sarebbe ottimo continuare a parlarne e promuoverlo. L’open source ha bisogno di finanziamenti non solo per gli sviluppatori che vi lavorano, ma anche per le aziende che utilizzano questi strumenti open source, quindi questo tipo di iniziativa è eccellente.
Sto inoltre promuovendo il finanziamento dell’open source in generale attraverso un elenco di strumenti che possono essere utilizzati a questo scopo. Potresti essere interessato: https://monetizeyourcode.com/.
Assolutamente sì, continueremo a farlo.
Lo faremo presto.
