As internet forums die off, finding community can be harder than ever
I hate to see discussions moving to Facebook groups. Often the groups are closed, you have to join to see what's inside. Closed groups are not indexed by google, so everything that's written disappears in the Facebook silo.With web forums everything is indexed and you can find the relevant info even if it's written ten years ago, and you can see it without having to join first.There's lots of useful info written on the web and a lot of this info is hidden behind social network walled gardens.
