Looks great! I would love to hear more about what sets you apart from http://www.discourse.org and the WHY you built it.

@dswiese Thanks! Check out http://flarum.org/story for the why. I can't hope to compete with Discourse on features (yet!), but I think Flarum's elegance sets it apart. Out of the box, it's pretty, fast, easy to use, and works beautifully on mobile. And it's written in PHP, so is super easy to install – any low-end shared host will do.
Whoa. Flarum may be brilliant Forum software, but that's no reason to hunt it here for the 5th time! Check https://www.producthunt.com/tech..., https://www.producthunt.com/tech..., https://www.producthunt.com/tech... and https://www.producthunt.com/tech....
@t55 Oops - sorry about all the times we've been hunted! Prior to our public beta launch a few hours ago, we didn't have much more than a landing page, FWIW :)
@tobscure Can't blame you for being hunted repetitively :) It's impressive software. But Product Hunt needs to sort this out. When I post a hunt these days I need to check the future URL to see if a product has been hunted already or not. I usually check 'https://www.producthunt.com/tech...', and 'https://www.producthunt.com/tech...' first. And even then I'm missing hunts like 'Productname 2, or 5 or whatever the updated version is called.
Looks great! Had a quick look at Discourse, and have to say that I prefer your look more. User experience so much better than Reddit, which is a headache in itself.
