This is great! I’ve been looking for examples of Discourse sites that are integrated with Youtube channels. Linking to their Discourse site in the video descriptions, then posting the videos in the forum’s Youtube Releases - Lawrence Systems Forums category seems like a good approach. My concern in the past has been that having a Discourse site might reduce the number of comments on Youtube and hurt the video’s Youtube ranking. I’d be curious if Lawrence Systems have any thoughts about the forum’s impact on their Youtube ranking.
I brought this up a while ago and Sam proposed a simple solution here: Topic embedding needs some love - #6 by sam. Also, the “Fostering Community Engagement” heading is missing on the embedded post.
