I'm curious what is insufficient about Hyperkitty that Discourse does
well at. Wasn't Hyperkitty supposed to give people the forum
experience? I admit I haven't used it that much for reading or posting
(though I do use it for archive links sometimes and it seems fine for
that), since I really like the e-mail interface, so I am not familiar
with how nice or un-nice it is to use.

 
Here is a link to discourse features:

I view hyperkitty as just a web interface for mailing lists - not much more than that.
Discourse provides a more complete conversation / collaboration environment.  If you
take a look at the features page, you'll see it offers some nice capabilities.

I wouldn't expect it to be a "drop-in" mailing list replacement.  Yes, it allows some
backward compatibility by providing "mailing-list mode" - but you're going to get a richer
experience if you use native interfaces.
