Writing on forums has been on a downhill trend for years now. We shouldn't kid ourselves, we are in the minority here. :d Whenever i say to someone "forums", the response is "are you living 20 years in the past". Everything is facebook and instagram now (sadly).

I think chat rooms have replaced forums too. Discord, WhatsApp, Messenger, etc. are much more popular than forums now, and, at least from my experience running our podcast Discord, they run better and function similarly.
