I now have this, and I have to say I hate it. This now turns discussions into yet another "task" to be "done", and makes it annoying to use discussions for long-running concerns - picture a "post your config" thread or similar. This now feels like it counts against you because the number feels like it should go down. It also further blurs the already blurry distinction between discussions and "issues". I would like to disable this because it's incompatible with my brain. |

Understood. We shipped it to experiment, but ultimately it wasn't doing the job we hoped it would of showing how active the community was (in a positive way). It has been permanently disabled now. |

I was positively surprised to see the number and how much work our community has done. Maybe just maybe, this will invite users to take action and create more discussions. |

@EricThomson Thanks for comments your insight! BTW @LindseyB said "This is coming soon." at Apr 11, 2023 but seems never ship yet? |

@ryota-murakami my understand is that the feature of having the number of discussions in the tab was added and removed already 😄. I think this was done for reasonable reasons: maintainers didn't like it because it ended up looking like yet anther thing that devs needed to reduce to zero (see comment from @faho above, and the reply from @LindseyB on the feature being disabled). My comment here was meant to brainstorm about alternative forms of visual feedback because the current state, of having the tab look the same for all repos, regardless of the state of Discussion (enabled, disabled, etc), seems suboptimal. However, : I didn't realize the tab actually isn't there when Discussions isn't enabled, so I was wrong about that. So it is only the same regardless of the level of activity of discussions, but honestly that's fine. The tab itself is saying "come on over and discuss here". When Discussions is not enabled, the tab is not there. I think the current situation is good. Sorry for spawning additional confusion over this. |
