But yeah, the modern web sucks. It’s all soulless algorithms and profit/rent seeking.
Even if someone tried to make forums again, they’d probably fill up with AI slop.

I mean, many forums are still live.
The problem is engagement. Discord, YouTube, even Lemmy all ping you in your pocket and offer more “instant” dopamine hits than a forum or news site, hence they’ve sucked all the attention.

And even if you don’t a lot of your friends and community do. Forums aren’t fun when it’s just you there.
