Message: [QUOTE="Lena CE, post: 32835, member: 26523"] Feels like a weird comparison to me For me it is just a far more reasonable way to responsibly communicate with people. To curb social media addiction as I slowly delete all of my account and to (ideally) find platforms that are less reactionary/bigoted, I turn to platforms that are less convenient on phones, aren't run by algorithms and are typically far better moderated. Plus there is that general nostalgia that forums as a concept give me. I'd spend so many afternoons as a kid on my grandparent's computer just endlessly refreshing forum threads on shitty dialup that would take ages to load anything. Wasn't easy for me to socialize irl and so I more or less got most of my communication with others via message boards and such. Recommended? Not at all, but it's all I had at the time lol. So yea, this type of enviornment is just ideal for me on many levels, at least for now. [/QUOTE]
