What should we work on next?

I'm looking for advice and feedback on what should we do next at CrazyEngineers. Few of the questions -

How should QnA work? For example: Should we bring the questions with replies at the top of the main feed?
Should we show members online? Let me know.
What are the topics we should discuss about?

1. Only latest/updated thread on the feed. If someone comments on an old thread, then that response may come on the feed with a reference to parent thread. Else older articles on main are not helpful.
2. I love seeing who all are online on the community - helps understand who may respond faster if I tag them in certain threads.
3. Memes are ok every once in a while, but discussing about mad/latest/wow engineering topics is what made me open CE everyday. Gadget comparison/review etc. also are interesting.

@Ambarish -
1. Sure. Makes sense. Old threads are surfaced only for SEO purposes. But with memberships open, we can put a pause on it.
2. Who's online is definitely coming. I've it on my list.
3. Interesting suggestion. I think we'll focus on QnA / Discussions.

One more suggestion I received is to add profile and settings (avatar etc.). I'll work on it as well.

If the discussions are ongoing, it may be helpful for such to be upfront.

Update: We now push the discussions to the site's front-page whenever someone comments on them. This works across all the post types so that we can know which discussion is in focus.

Note: Only logged-in members of CrazyEngineers can add replies.

Elon Musk has completed his takeover of Twitter and one of the new changes he's proposed is $8/mo for the Twitter blue tick.

Do you think this move is justified? Let me know!
