"Bah weep grannah weep nini bong" Presents Energon in universal greeting

Have a great weekend everyone!

Thank you for providing another option discussing GOS topics! In my opinion it's way better than chatrooms and hopefully much easier to search for information than on reddit or twitter and for discussions in github issues.

GrapheneOS Thank you for creating this and also for introducing me to Flarum. I'd never heard of it before and it seems to run like lightning and be very simple. I've been looking for something like this and everything else seems so heavy and complex.

    Hello dear friends. What's going on?

    Amazing!

    Hello folks!
    Finally a dedicated forum for GrapheneOS.

    strcat Nice to see this is a thing.

    I also looked into existing forum software for a (now defunct) project a number of years ago and did not come back impressed with the existing options. phpBB for instance likes to use a "databse abstraction layer" which is mainly just syntactic sugar around the legacy mysql/mysqli modules and if I remember correctly it involved SQL queries constructed using an aggressive amount of string interpolation and escaping. In theory it is possible using this to produce queries involving user input that isn't liable to injection but the list of caveats and when can go wrong when certain things are forgotten would be post in itself.

    I am a bit ambivalent of having forums designed around having all the threads on a single page as opposed to the legacy format of a listing of categories and having lists of threads under each category. I suppose if its really wanted one could design a similar layout for Flarum.

        JTL Flarum's primary tags act like traditional forum categories and can be placed in a 2-level hierarchy. In the settings for configuring the forum, there's a choice for the appearance of the default home page:

        Home Page

        Choose the page which users will first see when they visit your forum.
