All in all, Great Job!

First of all, I just want to say that this website is the bomb!
Some other websites I’ve visited frequently like Reddit, Quora, and Stack Overflow all seem to use the same format of all the topics you follow being in one long column that you can scroll down infinitely to look at.
Whereas here in the Godot Forums, topics are separated into many categories on the main page where you can go to get specific help for something related to that area without having to know what to search!
My other reason for loving the Godot Forums is that it’s specific to one thing in particular: Godot!
This means that people can easily bond over one thing without much worry!
All in all, the Godot Forums have a little something for everyone I think!
The only thing that I want to see added would be a Bio in your profile so you can describe yourself there, but other than that, everything’s great, even if that doesn’t get added!
I just want to say thank you to the team for making all this, and the wonderful work you’ve all put in already!

Thank you for your feedback, this site is still pretty much a baby and still have many things to be done. As someone who got exposed to internet forum pre 2008, this kind of layout grows on me (phpBB, myBB, vBulletin). I think this layout works well on niche, and heavily topical subject like Godot Engine. Single column with infinite scroll down / pagination works well on site like Reddit, which is a bit more on the social side.

It's actually already there (you can look at my profile), Bio, signature, and website links. However it's locked behind level as a way to deter spam accounts while rewarding participation. You level up by gaining reputations, as for now the only way to get reputations is by getting upvotes .
