hey all, thanks for your feedback! I’m sorry for being slow on implementing suggestions, I’m trying to spread the responsibility out a bit more so please let me know if you are interested in helping out.
I’ve implemented all suggestions here and in the related email thread I think, please flag anything I’ve missed. I emailed the Discourse support team and got the discourse-rss-polling plug-in enabled, it should be pushing new content to the News section. I haven’t changed the color theme because honestly I don’t know how to make them match more the website (which is white & blue) – please check out the theme options and see if you find something better.
re: other discourses, my initial understanding was that we don’t want development discussions to be happening on the forum since the dev community prefers the qubes-devel mailing list. so maybe feature requests and development discussions stay off the forum for now? they can also exist on Github.
