1. Keep rendering the legacy UI in xblocks for the foreseeable future

   1. Pros: No dev time and cost will be spent on a feature that we plan to deprecate eventually (~2 years)

   2. Cons: Content created in MFE and interacted with in legacy, and vice versa, may create some incompatibility. Here one that i’m aware of:

      1. Images uploaded in MFE do not show in legacy

      2. More investigation required

2. Embed sidebar view inside discussion xblock view - sidebar will show inside iframe of xblock

   1. Cons: Will require modifications to sidebar (dev work in range of ~ 20hours60hours)

3. Render xblock discussion topic in sidebar, when show discussion button is clicked.
