nothing much, because atomicthumbs described the forums as a lame hole not worth mentioning in the initial tweet, so everyone else covering it did too. as expected, goons are the downfall of SA and ruin the internet

people under 30 seem to insist everyone use message boards for collaboration because “email is broken” and “mailing lists are old fashioned”

gently caress spending most of the day in a web browser

(though maybe if they also insist on using their web browser for email that’d explain why they think it’s broken)
