It always comes don't to personal preference and what you are used to. > Also, on Discourse, you can use markdown if you want, or not. The problem is not what I do, the problem is when other is using markdown. How it would look like in a text only mail client. There are some that is using HTML on this list, and reference the text in blue or the bold text, since I use text only I don't see that and can't help them. > > I find forum hard to use, all people top post so you don't know what they > > are replaying to (I know, a lot of people do that here also). > > Threading doesn't work properly, technical and because people don't > > replay to a post, but to the thread. > > Heh, I'd say the exact opposite.
