I wonder what’s the order of number of users discourse could support without sharding etc, i.e., heavy customization of code.

Number of users isn’t necessarily relevant – the amount activity is. I can’t name our largest hosted customers for privacy reasons, but we host communities for several of the largest brands (and games) in the world.

thanks Hawk! Possible to share a couple of such active communities ?

Unfortunately not. Customers at that level have strict NDAs in place that mean we can’t name them. It’s possible that other Meta users may know about some of them and could name them here, but I’m afraid that we can’t.
One reasonably large one that I can name is https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/ but we host communities much larger.

The World of Warcraft forums are a great example.

Roblox DevForum is another great example of a Discourse-powered forum with lots of people.

Post wise the largest Discourse community I am aware of is https://forums.mixedmartialarts.com with 31M posts.
User wise the largest Discourse community I am aware of has 33M users (can’t disclose the name)
