I like some communities more than others. Hacker News I enjoy a lot for example. A whole lot of super smart people interacting in mainly civilized fashion? I'm in, even when there's the occasional disagreement. Curiously, I find the ArsTechnica forums a tad toxic, although I would have expected a similar audience. I gravitate to the forums that have that usenet feel, there are some, although many are sadly behind Discord (which is great, but it feels much like a walled garden to me).
