Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying. (www-xataka-com.translate.goog)

What are we going to do about it?

Sorry for the Google Translate Link. An easy alternative is much appreciated.

20 posts per page? lol. I think usually it was 10.

Don't forget profile pictures and signatures making every post take up way more screen space than they should.

I don't mind the concept, it was the layout that made small one sentence replies become like 15x longer on the page.
