Honestly forums in general are just not as popular anymore. The new generation likes Reddit, Twitter, and Discord. Don't understand the fascination withDiscord for discussions. Forums are far easier to search and archive info.

I couldn't begin to explain my distaste for Reddit and especially Twitter in the modern day, but Discord is very much fine I think, for mostly everything... but it really doesn't allow for deeper meaningful discussions as well as a forum does, because it makes every post feel so disposable. I guess it's inevitable as mostly everyone these days has a similarly disposable attention span. But even if we are a small minority in the internet these days, I'm far from convinced that this community is doing as well as it could.

For games with in depth strategies, Discord blows. A lot of fighting game tech gets discussed on Discord now.
