In my personal opinion, Kodular Discourse is perfect as it is, and I don’t change the dark theme for anything

Obs: I changed the Discourse interface language in the settings

Thanks for voting, everyone!
Your opinion matters a lot to us.

Some number crunching, if you’re a stats geek

• 63% of you do not use the category list frequently to navigate to posts.

• Of those who voted to keep the category list as it is, only 28% use it frequently.

• 70% of you use the scroll function on the right of the screen to switch between replies.

• Kodular Material and Dark are two of the Community’s top and most-used themes.

Based on the information we’ve collected, we’ll soon be making a few changes to the Community to make it more user-friendly than ever.

Keep posted, and happy koding!

If you found the search function to be quite hard to use, do let us know what we can change to make searching the Community easier.

[ImranTariq]

Search function is operating well for me, and easy to use

[Robert (swelteringEngine)]

A little suggestion: can you make these buttons’ colour closer to #FFFFFF? They look good for a dark theme (tbh, I like #000000-grey dark themes better than #222222-white ones), but not for

this background colour.

[yanquisalexander (Alexander Barrios)]

I think it is very difficult for some users

[FahadAhmad]

But I think Search button is not visible to most users as they don’t even try to search before posting.
