Conversation at full depth
Full chronology, replies, permissions, member identity, and durable links.
HORIZONFORUMS SOFTWARE
One forum spine. Every community surface.
Threads, Pulse, status, people, communities, and search all project from the same moderated content model. The social layer never becomes a second database that can lose its history.
Chronological by default
Follow the people and communities you choose without an algorithm deciding what matters.
A real node type
Status updates have their own visibility and replies; they are not a thread pretending to be a post.
History stays attached
Posts, trust, provenance, and recognition stay with the person who made the contribution.
One moderation model
Subscribable, self-moderated spaces whose rules and history remain on the same spine.
One index
One content store means one search, one permission system, and fewer places for truth to split.
The core is MPL-2.0 software: free to run, with no user cap, feature gate, or renewal treadmill.
