User, post, and comment model in mongoose

I am making a forum app that is quite similar to Reddit. I am using mongoose here for schema design. I have some doubts regarding models that I have- User, Post and Comment.Does the schema look all right of all the models?In User, I want to show the friends on the user profile. Like when you go to his profile, there will be like Friends(200), and when I click, the friend list should appear(like in Facebook, on clicking you can access friends' profiles). I haven't created Friend schema, but does it needed actually?So far, I have the basic comment schema. What happens to the threaded comments or replies. How do I store them?All the models that I have currently:js const userSchema = new Schema( { username: { type: String, required: true }, email: { type: String, reuired: true }, password: { type: String, required: true }, country: { type: String, required: true }, friends: [{ type: Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: "Friend" }], // is it needed? posts: [{ type: Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: "Post" }], }, { timestamps: true } )js const postSchema = new Schema( { title: { type: String, required: true }, description: { type: String, required: true }, user: { type: Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: "User" }, slug: { type: String, slug: "title" }, upvotes: { type: Number }, downvotes: { type: Number }, city: { type: String }, // post will have a tag by the city like NewYork, LA etc. }, { timestamps: true } )js const commentSchema = new Schema( { comment: { type: String, required: true }, post: { type: Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: "Post"}, user: { type: Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: "User"}, upvotes: { type: Number }, downvotes: { type: Number } }, { timestamps: true } )
