Forums are starting to make a comeback, reddit is shit for a lot of historical style discussions(like on going threads) and Facebook groups and discord are completely trash for it as well. I'm seeing a lot of the forums I used to visit start to pick back up.

Yep, I don't see them getting massive like they used to be, but definitely not as dead as they have been for the last 10 years or so. I don't know if it's just the generation that grew up with the old net or if there is a sprinkle of the new younger generation helping though.
