For people who want to avoid running nonfree software, how can we tell if the software that a website gives us for accessing a forum powered by Discourse is free software? Without the JavaScript client software, the forum appears to be read-only, so I want to run the JavaScript on the website, but …

Maybe you are also interested in safe mode , which disables JavaScript customizations.

Discourse is open source, so using it is free. Hosting, by own or using CDCK, will cost. Search is discourse free gave this: [이미지] Is Discourse free or not? Self-hosting Hi everyone, I like how Discourse looks and would like it on my new, tiny personal site …

My guess is you can’t. Some installs will be hosted and have proprietary bits in the hosting stack. Self hosters would be foolish not to use the standard install because that’s the cheapest to support. One thing you might find is some sites might use proprietary/private plugins which the platform…

[이미지] Jakke Flemming: Sure it is. And de facto the only source to use. I am confused by this statement. Are you saying that people who host Discourse do not modify the software before redistributing it?

People are known here the team or as a company CDCK. Of course they do, every day. Itnis under constant development. And yet that is what we are using. This may open that question: [이미지] Is Discourse always in "beta"? Support I noticed that every now and…

Your mention of plugins made me think if there’s a way to check the version information, and I found this topic that describes how to get the version information. So I can see, for example, that this instance is using commit 276bc8a565389ea1a145af08ec8e64c1a5bea990, the FSF member forum is using co…

[이미지] Jacob: Do you know of any way to get the list of installed plugins? You could look at the javascript packages to get a clue, but any amount of plugins might be installed in the back end away from prying eyes.

What I meant by “modify the software before redistributing it” was that people who redistribute the software on public websites, like forums.puri.sm for example, could modify their version without submitting changes to the main git repo. If they made an agreement with Discourse, they could release t…

The velocity of changes to the main repo is so high it would be expensive to keep a fork viable. That is exactly why plugins are a popular solution for extensions.

[이미지] Jacob: If they made an agreement with Discourse Big if and I don’t believe that would happen — and what agreement, Discourse is open source. But CDCK better that knows. I reckon out there is some forks, but are those in production… I doubt that. But as Robert said, why when things can b…

So I guess the only way to check plugins might be to: Set up my own Discourse instance Try to install the same plugins as any remote instances I want to interact with Check to see if the plugin JavaScript is the same on my instance vs their instance I guess I could also try to avoid running the p…
