Use your forum as a blog

I noticed today that Airtable use Discourse for their community. They also use it as a way to announce and share news.

I feel people think forums are only for discussions, but really we can use them to share information on almost anything. Β We need to shake off that limitation and feel that freedom to post what we like.

Having discussions, news, articles, videos, etc in all different locations creates confusion and makes it harder to gain traction.

What if we all moved towards the idea of all content being in a 'community forum'?
