nodeBB VS HumHub

> I'm a big fan of https://nodebb.org/

TIL to what shit Netgate moved pfSense forums to. I'm glad you are fine with it, but not only my FullHD monitor is not a smartphone, so I don't need 400% fonts on everything (and post dates on the faaaaar right clearly shows nobody ever even used the forum) and most importantly - search doesn't work. It's not like the previous forum had a good search, but at least it worked.

Bonus point: try to Ctrl+mousewheel on any NodeBB (including the official one).

NodeBB

You said it's based on. This means that there are modifications to the implementation of nodebb. So where is your modifications' source code then? stackfoss/stackfoss is just a single readme file

Obviously forums aren't as popular as they used to be, so this topic might not be of interest to many. For folks that want to run a forum, they'd most certainly go with Discourse (Ruby), Flarum (PHP), Xenforo (PHP), NodeBB (Javascript), Nimforum (Nim) and maybe Casnode (Go)

If you want to make your own app out of custom code that you will actively develop new features for, I think your points are true. But if you just wanted a modern version of the old phpBB forums, there are plenty of almost-turnkey projects/templates you can use. Check out NodeBB for instance. Maybe the barrier for entry is higher in a way, given increased complexity, but you also get more and nicer features "for free". I think it's a wash.

I was looking into actively maintained Rust based forum software similar to NodeBB (Node.js) or Discourse (Ruby on Rails) and Flaskbb (Python).

Humhub for local Facebook.

Barrage - a beautiful, mobile responsive UI for deluge. ( torrent client that is very nice ) HumHub - Open source social community software. Might be great to share with friends, for easy communication. Ntfy - Push notifications for desktop or mobile Sshwifty - Browser based SSH & Telnet client Actual Budget - Modern budgeting software Documize - Confluence alternative - Docker Image

A link would be helpful. I assume: https://www.humhub.com/

Take a look at https://www.humhub.com

Yes, there is humhub, Wordpress, Monica and several note-taking apps. But none of those are lightweight or have that journal style.
