Is there a listing of all discourse forums anywhere? Seems like this should exist

Donā€™t believe such a directory exists for all discourse forums, and probably, in part, for these reasons

There are loads of forums listed in the Discourse customers | Discourse - Civilized Discussion however.

These two services track whoā€™s using what and where:

BuiltWith: Websites using Discourse

SimilarTech: Discourse Market Share and Web Usage Statistics

Thanks, of course this kind of service would exist :slight_smile:

Looks like, as expected they are both ā€˜freemiumā€™ sites, but interesting to note there are apparently over 5,400 sites using Discourse on the internet (presumably canā€™t count hidden internal instances?).

Another way to find them is by visiting the standard Discourse About / FAQ page and then Google a long string of text ā€œin quotesā€. Most people donā€™t bother changing that content so youā€™ll get a list of sites.

Neither of those are tracking the number of discourse installs accurately.

Iā€™m sure, I suspect there are way more than reported by either of those sites. Maybe as much as 10x more perhaps.

And Iā€™m sure that each time someone searches for a specific website - using the ā€œfreeā€ part of BuiltWith - that site is then added to their databaseā€¦ helping it to grow. :wink:
