>still is a functional forum site in 2026Its amazing how much boomers can talk about music. some of those threads are as fast as /v/ during the week.
>>109468683But /g/ told me that forums are dead and everyone uses discord and that talking to discord faggots with anime pfps is the same as having real friends
>>109468711/g/ is lying about that oneson don't fall for /g/ memes you will ruin your life/g/ will say that you can't use proprietary software ever for any reason and such other stupid purity testing, it is like a cult in that waydo not listen to cult like people
>>109468711>>109468736Anyone over 45 isnt using Discord, the only forums still alive these days are for old peoplestevehoffmanaudiokarmavideokarmaetc. Once those boomers die those sites will die as well
>>109468683It's kinda more amazing that the forum software holds up.Explains why xenforo took over all the forums.
>>109468749I still use MyBB
>>1094686834chan is a functional forum site
>>109468742Why are you acting like 4chan isn't in that same age group?
>>109468945There are many people that use 4chan that are in their 20s still. Going to /soc/ is proof of that
>>1094690434chan only has one rule regarding age, and it is that you must be 18 years of age before you post. Ironically, moot himself broke this rule, and maybe technically committed credit card fraud.
>>109469043Of course, the parasocial board would be the one zoomers flock to
>>109468749We have like 200x the compute now and a forum is effectively a static site when you're reading threads, you could probably design something based on the old templates that can handle millions of visitors per day on basic hardware.
>>109469438The first thing they should do is make it so it emits json, and the front end just ingests that json api. You would make javascript a requirement but it already isSite would scale up immediately and hiroyuki would save thousands
>>109468742>the only forums still alive these days are for old peopleNot even remotely true.
>>109468945Judging by some posts on /g/ alone I'd put it into 15 years of age group.
>>109469438You would think but some forum software don't scale too well.Witnessed a large forum moving to xenforo because vb couldn't handle the traffic despite all the hardware upgrades.
