What are we going to do about it?
Sorry for the Google Translate Link. An easy alternative is much appreciated.

Forums are where I learned literally everything about technology I know now. Every hack, jailbreak, method of bypassing something, building, literally anything I’ve done around my tech hobbies. Pi hole, emulation in the late 90s, how to use Photoshop, how to run Linux from a USB, everything I’ve learned from forums. I’m sad to think that me joining certain discords help deliver the death knell to the concept of forums.
proudly not a part of the problem. and I fucking told everyone so at the time.
I swear my real name is cassandra, and my parents just misspelled it badly.
I’m not convinced at least half of those communities trust Reddit and Discord enough to leave forums, but then again I stopped using them mostly because I haven’t had time for those hobbies. My emulation groups are still active on forums, at least.
How about crossposting forum post links on Lemmy? This would help to get them exposure.
