Fucking zoomers with their tiktoks and snapchats, what was so wrong with old school forums?
What's wrong with old school forums is that they don't have a proper UI for threaded discussions, every comment on a post is at the same level and you have to read it all in chronological order instead of in a flow that matches how people are talking to each other. Lemmy isn't an old school forum, it's a new school forum. Threaded discussions are awesome and way better for finding information or staying on your choice of topic.
I can't use old school forums anymore. It's so damn specific and it's limited to power hungry mods and their lackey's. Lemmy seems like a good spot but it's not fully adobted yet. Like the early days of Reddit.
