Example: Welcome to Fedora Discussion. Here we discuss ideas, projects, process and generic development of the Fedora Project. For problems, questions and support of released versions of Fedora, please use discussion.fedoraproject.org.
The other option would be to check how many “on-topic” questions are actually here, and maybe close this forum and move it under Ask umbrella, as a special subsection there, until it gets the traction it deserves.
But if we keep two forums, maybe let’s avoid using the word “discussion” at the Ask Fedora site and rename the categories, so that we have less confusing branding of these spaces.
Good idea. We could do this by creating a global pinned message that appears at the top of all categories.
We should follow this up by changing a default user preference on Discourse from not automatically unpinning a pinned thread once it is read. This makes it easier to lose track of and forget pinned messages. I am only a Discourse moderator, not an admin, so someone else would have to make this change.
@FranciscoD, @bt0dotninja, @nasirhm, @hhlp, @alishapapun, or someone else from the Join SIG: any suggestions on wording for this global pinned message?
I am only a Discourse moderator here, not an admin either I supose all Join SIG are moderator, not an admin too
I think if I remember well @FranciscoD point out some similiar to not convert dis.fp.org an Q&A site and route some kind of this question to ask.fp.org…
+1 for this @jwf

Yes, keeping them separate was intentional mainly because the two instances serve different purposes. While this instance is meant more for discussion around development of Fedora (and replaces some of the mailing lists, for example), Ask Fedora is only meant for end-user discussion. Combining them risks lots of end-user questions in development discussion categories, and we do not want that.
Let’s me propose one, taken some ideas from both sides, message should be clear, concise, simple:
Blockquote
This instance is meant more for discussion around development of Fedora and Project itself, A better place for Fedora users to troubleshoot issues, please redirect to askfedora.
