Forum activity comes and goes quite unexpectedly. Just like mentioned formerly very active punk forum noise topic, is nowadays often very dormant. Many formerly regular writers dont write there either. S&W, can be good stuff there, but is there much more activity than SI? Often hanful of topics are recent and quickly you see latest messages can date back even months.
WCN discord, I do not know, but I have been told forums in general are the old and slow thing while discord is more what people like to do these days. Never seen even how discord channel looks like, so no idea.
I have feeling as if general discussion online is a bit less? Forums in general, but also facebook groups and so on. What does it mean? Who knows. Has there been also small decline in noise podcast views? I have checked out some of the smaller noise related podcasts and quite surprised about relatively small numbers there appear to be.
I recall when chat / whatsup calls / zoom whatever first came, it felt as if "everybody" was using it quite a lot. Now almost big part of people I know, have dropped out from social media platforms, etc. It feels obvious that there has been quite drift away from digital world, at least by people I know.
