If it’d be possible to even smoothly migrate existing forum databases over to the new system

This is just simply a great thought. The simplicity yet intriguing nature of this suggestion is what I believe should be considered by developers and the steem team as a whole. This would be a big break through and as you’ve said , only if it is possible

I believe there is one in the works... TokenBB.

I think it is @buildteam working on it.



Awesome!

👍

I think this could be an interesting idea. I think a lot of people use Discord for the type of stuff that would normally be discussed on a forum though right? It doesn't give them the incentive of course but it does give them a place to have conversations which are more real time than a forum. I guess maybe I just haven't used forums enough to relate, or maybe I am too old :) Scratch all of that. I just thought of some good use cases for them. I think this is a great idea and based on the comments it looks like some are already in the works!

have a look into chainbb, it was a forum platform build on top of the steem blockchain, they closed the website half and year ago. The code still open source though

Contact me if you are interested in continue this abandoned project, I would love to help with the front-end, give it a material design look.

Let's wait and watch what comes out...hope the seed gives some sweet fruit when {if} rippen....
