It's the default, and is kinda boring. Compare with the rust subreddit:

  http://www.reddit.com/r/rust/

While not great, it's much better than ours.

Being a moderator, I can change the look/feel of it by modifying the CSS:

  https://www.reddit.com/wiki/styling

But, as you all have pointed out to me innummerable times, I have no taste in styling. So anyone want to give me a hand?

Also, so far I haven't figured out how to change the sidebar, which would be nice to insert links to dlang.org, etc., into.

We don't need the subreddit. We have these forums.

Rust has their own forum, but it's for implementers. Most of their discussions/announcements happen at reddit. That's why it is more active and maintained.

We already have an active forum here for everything, so we don't need another one. No point splitting the community. Just leave the qznc bot their to cross post announcements, but I don't think there's any value in trying to have, or promote, two separate forums.

It's a good point, but I do feel that we should at least add some helpful links like in the rust subreddit sidebar.

Personally I feel like the more the merrier.
