Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying.

Can we actively do something to help this process?
yes. do what i’ve been doing. tell your irl acquaintances about the fediverse. tell them about the lack of algorithm and the lack of ads. tell them about the lack of billionaires farming you and yours for data.
Already on it! ✊
But I think we need a simple elevator pitch to win them over. No ads is definitely a great start.
It's reddit with better/real people. Most people probably can feel reddit going to shit. Quality of comments is way down.
That's true. Quantity over quality.
