I am looking for a modern forum software, which has most of the following features:
- An #api (e.g. #rest) to process data from the #forum and automatically post it again (bot) - #Markdown for composing new posts - Side-threads, so several discussions can exist in parallel without annoying everyone else (like #mastodon, #Lemmy or #reddit) - #opensource
The last days I played around with #lemmy, but it has sooo much issues, that I might throw away the work of the last 2-3 weeks, if I find something better.

@utopify_org#flarumhttps://flarum.org/ would be the obvious choice, but I suggest sticking a bit longer with #Lemmy as the federated aspect of it really has a lot of potential even if it is still a bit buggy.
For a very long time I contribute to #boinc but the more sustainable I live the more I ask the question:
Is it a waste of energy or is it an investment, which brings something positive in the future?
There are also very few groundbreaking successes in the boinc projects or I just don't get the news because I only read the notes in the boinc manager and there are often only things about maintenance.
Even if it would run on old/discarded hardware and with alternative energy, I still think it might not be worth the CO2 output.

@utopify_org This came to mind as something to look at https://github.com/thredded/thredded
@utopify_org maybe #discourse has a side thread plugin?
