Yeah I'm just adding my vote for please god, do NOT move to discourse.  SAGE-AU moved to discourse a couple of years ago, and it killed the organisation.  As it turned out, like 90% of the members REALLY like email, and had absolutely no interest in moving their conversations to a web message board.  As much as discourse likes to say it supports email, it really doesn't do a good job of it, and with members cracking the shits and leaving, SAGE-AU went broke last year, and now we don't have a peak body for IT Professionals in Australia.

Hi,
Here's just one vote *NOT* to use Discourse. It's a discussion system, not email. So we have to go there to see if anything is new rather than just having info come in our inbox. For me (YMMMV) I find it like having an inconvenient PO Box that you have to intentionally go visit to see if anything is there vs. mail being delivered to my home mailbox.

Great question. As it turns out, we are in fact looking to switch to
Discourse.

https://www.discourse.org/

Curious if folks haved used it and like it.
