    My gripe with old school forums is that there isn’t really any threading for comments. Makes it hard to keep up with things

      Some forums have nested comments. It depends on the software.

        Would you happen to be able to list some? I’ve been looking!

          I have no firsthand experience, but looking at this page, candidates appear to include:

          • Beehive Forum
          • FUDforum
          • MyBB
          • Phorum

          I also assume the last open-source version of Reddit’s software is still floating around the 'net somewhere.

      Agreed, I never understood why the discourse developer hates threading.
