Could you elaborate on that?  This assumes everyone agrees with the 
statement.  I don't think that is the case.  It is certainly not the 
case for me.  I know how to filter out subjects I don't want to read.  
It is easy.

What happens if Discourse get bought or goes out of business?

Just a few yuck things:

"Let the community suppress spam and dangerous content, and amicably 
resolve disputes." (that would never be misused to suppress something 
the community moderators don't like...never...)

"When someone quotes your post, we’ll notify you. When someone mentions 
your @name, we’ll notify you. When someone replies to your post… well, 
you get the idea. And if you’re not around, we’ll email you, too." (WTF?)

"Encourage positive community behaviors through the included set of 
badges"  (ohhh, I want a shiny badge!)

"Discourse was designed for high resolution touch devices..."
