I get where you're coming from, but I'm honestly so annoyed by the general trend of moving from openly accessible online forums to private channels over the recent years. Trying to find answers to many niche questions now often feels like being back in middle school and spending hours or days finding the right IRC channel - only now it's not IRC channels but discord servers.

Reddit can monetize my shit all they want, I'm not gonna contribute to that.
