I love the way commenting works on Flarum - for the most part it is a better UX than any other forum I have seen in the recent past. Nonetheless, for some of the ways in which I engage my community, I would really like to see an option to switch on comment threading, a la reddit style.
For example, one of the things that would be possible with threading would be AMAs. Comment threading combined with upvote/downvote helps to keep the most relevant questions to the AMA guest on top and an elaborate conversations thread can brew within it.
My questions are:
- Will the core release support something to enable threading, at a post or site wide level?
- If not, will it be possible to extend Flarum-core's comments to support reddit style threading with a 3rd party plugin?
