Soft launching the new NodeBB website
-
Check it out - https://nodebb.org/
Let us know your thoughts. We're still a few weeks away from finalizing everything - we're still in beta. If you were interested in hosting with us, we're offering some discounts for early adopters, so take advantage of this now before we fully launch. Don't forget that this software will always be free and open source. This is just our way of paying the bills
If you're running NodeBB on your own, please remember that the best way to support us is to like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, and [submit pull requests on Github](link http://www.github.com/designcreateplay/NodeBB). And just spreading the word on our awesome forum software!
We're glad that you all have accompanied us on this journey in the past half a year or so. Looking forward to what lies ahead in 2014..

Looks great on my desktop but I'm having scrolling issues on the iPad. Going from first to last page and the smoothness of the scrolling is gone.
-
Everything is nice, but scrolling is a little bit difficult. For example, when you want to scroll from first section to last, you must wait for animation in every step. Time wasting
Everything else is nice

Actually, I noticed that too... it's a delicate balance for these two cases:
- Scroll a lot? Only move down one slide
- Scroll one tick, and scroll again a short while later (before animation finished?), scroll down another slide
So we should definitely take a look at that, thanks @dove!

Looks nice! I like it, however I see the scrolling has already been mentioned.

I like it
looks very smart.

thanks for the comments all
need to work on that scrolling bug, and get the marketing page working on the ipad as well (haha kind of shameful considering that the forum boasts about being mobile friendly)all will be fixed before launch
meanwhile, was wondering about your thoughts re: redesign of this community forum (something really simple, but matches the nodebb.org concept)
totally didn't steal this idea from convoe (wasntme)

I like it!

throw the social media icons in the footer so you have that pushing extra traffic for every person who stops by as blogs, articles, etc. roll out.

Looks nice!

I really dislike how the scrolling has been artificially limited on desktop. Gives a very unprofessional impression when basic scrolling with the wheel doesn't work right.
-
I don't personally see any difference in scrolling, what is this artificial limitation that you speak of?
-
On iPad I can scroll freely. On desktop with Firefox and Chrome I can't:
- I can only go to specific "screen", not in-between them.
- Wheel moves with slow transition to the next screen.
- I can scroll the wheel super fast and it only does one scroll event at a time, so if I wanted to go quickly from top to bottom with wheel I can't do that. I have to wait for the transition.
- I can't middle click (wheel click) to get into free scrolling mode.
- There is no scrollbar, only small buttons that I'm supposed to click.
Every convenient way to scroll the page has been disabled on desktop. JavaScript for the sake of JavaScript.
Also, iPad seems broken when I go from vertical to horizontal: suddenly I can only scroll from first screen to the fourth one, and back again.
