Aside from the main topic (amazing stuff, undoubtedly). It was sooo good to visit normal forum, not Twitter, not Facebook, not Reddit, just a forum run by passionate people.
Sadly, European Union is working very hard to make maintenance of such forums almost impossible.
First we got GDPR and "right to be forgotten", so anyone can demand ones posts to be deleted. Then came infamous article 11 and 13, with obligatory content filtering. Now, there is TERREG regulation being accepted, which requires removal of "terrorists content" in 1 hour, otherwise there are huge fines. This will not stop spreading terrorist content, obviously, but a malicious person can post something "terroristic" in the middle of the night and report forum owner, who would have 1 hour to delete such content...
