Notes on the forum structure

As you surely have noticed already, the forum has a new look.

We enabled the sidebar on the left-hand side and the new notifications interface in the top right-hand corner.

By default, the main categories are pinned as well as four tags which are currently exclusively used for proposals in phase 0 or phase 1. You can adjust the pinned categories and tags in your user settings at “Preferences” / “Sidebar”.

Both features are part of Discourse’s recent 3.0 release. Two other new features that have not been enabled yet are User status and real-time chat.
Would you find it useful to have a real-time chat directly in Discourse when we already have a Discord?
Let us know your thoughts here in the comments, on Discord or directly to me via DM.
