I frequent the OCAU forum here in Australia. Moderating the News board became too arduous and carried potential legal liability. So they turned the board off.

It’s really not that hard.
And anyway, just because you can’t fix everything, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try and fix something.
All or nothing thinking leads to inaction.
- vasdae 3y agoSo we can only have discussion forums where the owner is a big company that can afford to have a team of moderators around the clock. Yes, that's going to end well. (For the elites, that is.)
- firecall 3y agoMy direct experience is that all social is now Dark Social. It's invite only Groups on Telegram, FB Messenger, or Apple Messages mostly. So it has ended well for my social circle ;-)
- nitwit005 3y agoA lot of discussion forums died that way. They shut down the problematic parts, but those were also the parts people were engaged with.
