Why did you delete the existing forums?

Literally just the other day, community.nextdns.io was a forum based on Discourse software - I registered and posted several threads, and replied to threads. Now apparently they've deleted that and installed new community / forum software? Why would you randomly do that without telling your userbase first?

For instance - here is the thread I created that has since vanished: https://community.nextdns.io/t/how-long-does-it-take-for-denylist-change-to-roll-out/92/2

    We tested discourse for a few days and disliked it so we switched to another solution. This one is here to stay. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Please make sure that you keep a single login for both my NextDNS account and the forum , like automatic login to community when I log into my NextDNS account. Logging in multiple times is very much time consuming

      Kruxie we do not want to sure your account information with an external service on your behalf. That is why we keep both accounts separate.

      Olivier Poitrey Does it allow adding a(n Apple) high-res favicon? If so, can you please add that?

       

      See this post on Stack Overflow.

       

      (the current icon looks very pixelated in iCab Mobile)

    This looks rather bad on iOS with the extremely large white space between all words... (for a single space!)

     

    Can you please improve this?

    BTW: I personally enjoy using Discourse (both on the web and in native Apps). What did you not like about it?

      Rob no knowledge base support, too much clutter / useless features and some other taste-based reason.

Content aside
