I’m new to discourse and maybe do not understand structure of replies and replies to replies. Maybe this is optimised for forum-like communities (updates are organised for users to know what happens with relevant topics and replies, where he’s mentioned?) Why replies are not organised in hierarchical way like in all social media (twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn) where you can reply to reply to reply and there’s a easy to navigate structure. As I see now in discourse replies just appear after one another and looks similar. Is this the best way to organise replies? Is it possible to have with plug-in structure like in twitter? Another question: is there a plug-in to have voting like in Reddit? Can it be implemented into “cheers” gamification plug-in? Thanks 🙏 I will really appreciate if someone will explain logic behind topics and replies organisation, especially if forum will have hundreds of thousands, or even millions users. Is it possible for Discourse to be effective managing information flow for such numbers of users? Thank You 🙏 --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/topic-replies-structure/270274)._
