# Hi Mozillians!

Thanks for your engagement during the preview session. I’m happy to announce that we’ve completed the migration of our Mozilla’s Discourse forum from a self-hosted instance to a hosted solution provided directly by the Discourse team. In addition to the migration, we have also updated our platform to the latest version.

Here’s how this transition will benefit the whole community:

- **Streamline maintenance and improve reliability**

- **Unlock new features and resolve existing bugs**

- **Give us momentum to re-think our strategic approach on cross-function community tooling**

We’re so excited about reaching this milestone and would love your feedback! Please take a moment to complete [our survey](https://survey.alchemer.com/s3/8155997/Mozilla-Discourse-upgrade-Q1-2025) - your insights will help shape future improvements to the platform.

Thank you for your support!

Thank you for the upgrade!

I can’t believe how fast this forum is now.  
Was it running on a Raspberry Pi before? 😃

Also, any way to reduce the spam messages?  
There seems to be a lot of them lately.  
Maybe add another captcha?

Hi Juraj,

There are some spam prevention techniques from [this page](https://meta.discourse.org/t/tips-for-preventing-spam/264020) that we may be able to employ in the near future. Is there any specific category you noticed getting the spam messages more often?
