I mostly use Reddit apps ever since the UI overhaul. You can pretty well reduce it to just text.
Somehow though, Reddit doesn’t feel very community-oriented. Out of my many years there, I don’t know any other users by their handle. I haven’t got to know anyone. I miss that about message boards.
Same here, actually.
I fondly remember car forums where you get to know the regulars.
IRC rooms still seem to have that aspect to them, but the IRC protocol makes it hard to have asynchronous conversations. I really like Matrix/Element protocol-wise, but there are issues there too.
Edit: I really like what Discourse is doing. I wish it had a lower barrier to entry and better community discoverability.
