Discourse is fancier, is written in Rails, and has a lot of excitement behind it. <br> <br> What factors should my friend look at when comparing the two forums? <br> <br> I like it that Q2A has badges and points, and a large user community. Discourse is newer so it has a more modern look and a somewhat large development team behind it.</p> Q2A Core https://www.question2answer.org/qa/23755/how-does-question2answer-compare-to-discourse Fri, 10 May 2013 20:43:16 +0000 https://www.question2answer.org/qa/5587/how-does-question2answer-compare-to-shapado-or-osqa What are its main advantages?
