Couldn’t agree more with this comment and the thread in general, it’s a relief to see. I get so frustrated as so many of my colleagues seem to cling to this very old concept of the testing pyramid and associated definitions. It’s completely meaningless in a modern setting. We should mock as little and as far back as possible, yet others seem to delight in locking huge chunks of functionally out of the test base just ‘because’.

I think for official communities self-hosted instances feels like a win-win for everyone. Companies get full control of their community but no one has to participate with it in isolation. They can also separate discussions, eg news@pokemon.com or blueprints@factorio.com.

For more abstract themed communities lime technology it’s definitely more complex. Reddit’s partial solution is multi-subreddits which could apply here but it’s far from a complete solution.
