These forums still exist and are still out there and used by everyday people. Every one of my reddits that I follow has some other alternative forum that is active. Some examples, of of the top of my head: AVS Forums [1] for home theater advice (instead of r/hometheater), or Home Barista [2] instead of r/espresso, or Road Bike Forums [3] etc. I actually don't mind the reddit charging for their APIs and making money for this convenience of single sign-on, cross searching, discoverability, moderation, user rating, etc... People should just use the regular apps, which work plenty fine, and move on with their life. Or, pay the third-party apps so they can afford the api usage.
