Communication of the open source community feels like it's down. Social media eventually killed forums and chat rooms. Social media if anything, made learning and discovering a more isolated experience. RSS isn't what it used to be either, that compounded with blog posts being down, and the sheer volume of bad tutorials, bad code, and bad ideas, it's hard to sift through it all and discover things of value.
Early Twitter were the golden years in my eyes. You could ask a question or post an idea and get responses from random developers. Now it's just echoes into the ether.
