Discourse seems somewhat orthogonal to IRC/Chat platforms, I guess it would be a better substitute for mailing list/forum than replacing
real-time messaging.

Pretty much all of the flavours are still going the traditional way:
Mailing Lists
IRC
askubuntu + ubuntuforums.org (we are not very active on these though, apart from maybe Lance!)
some flavours have a presence on reddit also
Ubuntu wiki
Launchpad for bug tracking and team management.

The community team did setup a discourse instance however it looks like that is going to discontiued now.
