This site is easier to use than Autodesk Forum, but there are some things I’d like to see incorporated.  
I’d like to see it incorporate the best aspects of drafts and (like Reddit) importing images (like Autodesk Forum).

In Reddit, You can create as many drafts as you want. and the images and links will remain.  
You can use it to decide on a title first and come up with the text later. It’s Useful.

In Autodesk Forum, You can import images in Autodesk’s forum by dragging and dropping multiple images at a time to upload them all at once.  
You can describe the image.  
Right now this site is just as hard to use as Stackoverflow.

It’s hard to figure out which image I uploaded.

On desktop, you can drag images into the post editor just like you describe. The drafts system is not supported by Discourse.

Thanks for the reply. Also, sorry for the slow response.  
I see that this site uses Discourse (I hadn’t heard of it before…).

I was able to post the images all at once by dragging them as you said. Thank you.  
It’s hard to tell which images were uploaded. Of course, you could just check it after you upload it if you want to.

As of October 15, 2020, there is an item called this Draft, and the Draft at the top is the one that is saved when you are editing this message in a different tab  
I can confirm this, but have you implemented it? I’m going to look into these mechanisms a little deeper, but can you explain how they work? There isn’t a save button, but if you press Cancel next to Reply, it says Are you sure you want to abandon your post? If you press Yes, abandon, it looks like the post has not disappeared in Draft, but when you reload it, you can see that it has disappeared.  
Is this a specification of Discourse? Should I post an opinion on the official website?  
If so, I’ll suggest it to Discourse.

I haven’t seen this on the Japanese site, please let me know. This site is so easy to use that I would like to suggest it to Autodesk.
