Heisenberg expressed gratitude and admiration for Discourse, praising its design and thoughtfulness. He noted the platform’s evolution through iterative changes and user engagement, calling it a model for software development. He also mentioned that his company has been using Discourse for over three months and has found it to be nearly faultless.
riking jokingly pointed out that Heisenberg’s site still has the default styling and also mentioned that it’s not running the latest version of Discourse.
Heisenberg replied that he likes the default styling, only making minor modifications, and that he pays someone to manage and update his Discourse install periodically.
codinghorror thanked Heisenberg for his support and for following through on his commitment to Discourse.
Just wanted to come back and say what a great product Discourse is! This really is a beautifully crafted discussion platform and incredibly well thought out, credit to the whole team. We’ve been using Discourse now for over 3 months and it’s very difficult to find fault.
In 2010 when we launched our company we only had a series of bad options, I think Discourse has transformed the landscape. The way the product has evolved through small iterative changes, backed by empirical evidence and engaging with users is really how software development should be done!
So well done, and please figure out a way for me to pay you
