Diskutuojame

Diskutuojame is a Lithuanian internet forum dedicated to public discussion on current events, politics, and culture. Founded in 2002 by a group of university students, the site has grown to more than 50,000 registered users and hosts over 100,000 threads. The platform features moderated sections covering topics such as economics, technology, entertainment, and local news. Users can create posts, reply to threads, and engage in debates through anonymous or registered handles.

The community has played a role in shaping public opinion. Several significant political controversies were highlighted on the forum before they gained attention in mainstream media. The board of directors features diplomats, journalists, and IT specialists tasked with ensuring a safe and respectful environment. Periodic polls and events encourage participation; for example, a yearly “Flag Day” discussion attracts thousands of participants.

Diskutuojame is accessible in multiple languages, though the primary language is Lithuanian. The podcast and video departments offer multimedia content.

The site also collaborates with academic researchers to analyze digital discourse. In response to rising concerns over misinformation, a fact‑checking team was founded in 2018. The forum has been studied in academic papers about online civic engagement in Lithuania. Overall, Diskutuojame remains a prominent platform for digital public dialogue in the country.
