I’m not sure but I got flagged for saying Skool has a better gamification system with Skool Games.
I honestly love how simple it is to use Discourse but from a marketing perspective Skool made it very simple for a MGM (Member Get Member) perspective that simply works with today creators and influencers.
You can go as far as saying that they stole a page from OF books (where “creators” have a free and a paid community) and made in a why that simplify for Course Creator, Coaches and other businesses share their communities on Instagram and TikTok.
PS: Moderators I’m not saying Discourse is bad - I’m just replying to OP on what I think they are doing better and linking to what I believe to be a prime example of MGM.
