lainchan used to be a decent way to avoid the big chans once they got vile, but still find decent people outside of meatspace. A well curated set of subreddits used to be find, but I'm feeling less and less motivated to continue on with keeping it organized. Private discord servers have taken over as the default hangout space for most of my friend groups with telegram and small forums starting to take root now as well.
That's kind of what I figured was happening, but I guess I'm getting too old to keep up with where the action is at on discord. I get why keeping it private has become so popular, but I struggle to find the flavor there. Reddit seems to have successfully killed everything that was fun.
