(blog/website bug, not an app bug) Responding to blog post fails with wordpress critical error #111

Hello WinDirStat team, very excited to see this project getting a new release.

I wanted to respond to the blog post you posted, but got a WordPress critical error.

I know quite a few projects that have enabled GitHub Discussions for non-issue, community centric conversations. Would you be open to enable this feature for the community?

In any way, just wanted to let you know about the website issue.

Hi, since I am the one to host the blog, I'll jump into this one. So what appears to be the problem. Do you still encounter it? How do I reproduce it? Does it only happen when you submit the comment, for example?

assarbad commented 1 month ago

Never mind. Was able to reproduce myself. Investigating tonight. Thanks for pointing it out.

@NoMoreFood should we enable discussions on the org?

NoMoreFood commented 1 month ago

@assarbad We can enable it. I think Issues has become the de facto discussion area, in general, but I suppose we are just contributing to that problem if we don't embrace a separate area for it.

Thanks for looking into this, and thanks for indulging my question about discussions.

In the communities where discussions are switched on and active, issues have become much 'cleaner' and focused. Discussions, is where community help is more effective, and the separation allows the contributors to focus on what is important for them (once the community starts engaging each other effectively)

Take a look at the following repos for inspiration of great communities that have embraced the separation:
