I wonder if it's possible to transform your current forum, which looks something like Xenforo.com with subforums, subforums, and remove all of that completely and just have it like Reddit, where when you join a subreddit, you write a thread or like X, you just create a post and send it. Is it possible?
 
A posting belongs to a thread and thread belongs to a node (i.e. "forum"). In other words: you have to create at least 1 forum in order to have threads and posts.

A more flat-like structure, like you want it, would require add-ons / custom coding: The above would still be the case, but you could show all threads directly on forum home instead of a single node, for example.

Edit: You can also try the option "Forums default page" (you find it in the admin cp: admin.php?options/groups/basicBoard/). You can set it to "New posts". But also in this case the forums list would be still available by hitting a button on the upper right of the forums/ route.

Thanks for the answer. If we look at Xenforo itself, the first subforum is Offical forums and some subforums on it. But if I instead choose a term like Index and not any subforums. If you want to write my car is broken how can I fix it? The next user starts a thread about help my computer has broken. Doesn't it work the way I'm trying to explain?
