Hi tech reclaimers! It's once again time to #StopTheScroll. Let's step away from Big Tech social media and rebuild our own digital independence.

This month our focus is on Forums. Remember those before Facebook swallowed up many of our favorite communities?

There's still some great forums online.

What are your favorites?

What forums do you miss?

Do you currently, or have you ever run a forum? How was the experience?

Are you interested in setting up a forum now?

Let's take it all back!

@TheBulletin I'm currently on a small community forum whose hosting costs are covered by crowdfunding. The forum was formerly linked to a now defunct site, and since the community didn't wanted to die, people decided to host it themselves.

For those of you that either missesd out on the wave of forums that pre-dated social media, or just haven't used one:

Would you consider trying one if you learned about one you like?

@TheBulletin only if they're federated like NodeBB or Discourse
