There are a lot of great suggestions in this thread—especially around improving UX and forum utility. As someone who works in tech and lead management, I’ve seen how platforms like Phonexa approach usability by blending communication tools with analytics. Features like inline replies, visibility into engagement stats, and customizable messaging logic really enhance how communities interact. If itch.io forums evolved with similar user-centric principles, it could seriously boost collaboration for game jams, dev feedback, and more.
