What the title says. I’m basically curious if the posts will be locked like on Reddit or if it will be possible to add comments to old posts (a feature which I missed on Reddit).

Not today and hopefully never for general forum purposes. Worse case, you get somebody that necros an old post akin to responding to an old email chain, or replying to an old forum thread. Usually not a big deal but sometimes it also sparks new discussions if that post/thread had some meaningful content.
Edit: Actually I think @FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world had the best idea. Would be a great option depending on the forum / poster’s need. There are some good reasons when you want to “mark a thread as closed”… like bug reports, project tasks, etc. But I feel the default behavior should be to keep post / threads open.
