I know this is a very sensitive topic, and I do understand why. Most new iterations of forum software have just been a bit much to take in with the styling and options and overall gui chaos.

I have to say, I am really sold on forums using discourse. Inductive Automation moved to this platform recently and the more I browse those forums the more I'm impressed by the platform. Sleek, clean, MODERN, looks great on mobile. IF there was ever an upgrade path I'd love to see that format here. I'm sure there is a way to keep our lovely color pallet to minimize the change nay-sayers:)

Not to stir the pot on this, but seriously it's the first forum platform that I've enjoyed since first discovering web forums 15 odd years ago. Anyone else browse forums who utilize that platform?
 
Honestly, I can't say that I've come across a forum that used discourse. In fact, I feel a little strange that this is the first time I have heard of it. I like to think I'm usually up on this sort of thing.

I've always liked the look for simple machines forums
