Added a /community endpoint as sort of an info hub for every subforem. It's kind of just a proof of concept at the moment but can be refined. Ideally it's customizable so we can link off to places like /challenges etc. but keeping it dynamic vs static.

We need to adjust quickie posts to properly not count full URLs for characters. I know Twitter traditionally capped these at 17 chars regardless of length — we'll want to do something similar along those lines.

Hoping to make improvements to quickie posts like this so they show up when appropriate in feeds (currently they sink pretty quickly) without overwhelming or taking away from the experience.
