Stack exchange is still pretty reliable for info as long as it's for questions in a niche that stack exchange serves
But :yea: every once in awhile I find a niche enough hobby where it's still on an old school phpbb forum instead of gobbled up by Reddit and it makes my week just knowing it exists
This link aggregator is better than some shit like discord when it comes to discussions, and whatever algorithm is in place for comment ordering isn't built to maximize engagement, which is nice. But it is still a link aggregator and I'm not sure how you create a synthesis of discussion forum and link aggregation without splitting your userbase.
Most of the holdouts from those seem to have been gobbled up by Discord over the last couple of years, unfortunately. Which is even more obnoxious when you're trying to search for information about something.

Flat forums are undeniably better for actual community and discussion than link aggregators.
