I avoided forums growing up because from what I’ve witnessed there was a lot of verbal abuse and so on, but I was into “communities” (basically closed social network long before I heard of myspace or facebook).

For example, I listened to a lot of hip-hop as a teenager. there was no meta algorithm feeding me garbage, but there was a hip hop community website :) It felt more intimate or homegrown if you will.

I’ve read this entire comment section all the way down here. What a waste of time.

I truly pray that our EU leaders don’t bicker amongst themselves like this. 🤣 EU armament now!
