    I see a lot of people saying online that "forums are dying off because of discord and reddit"

    yet other people reply: "Well, I'm still using my forum/IRC."

    So I have to ask, what forums that are decently big still exist? Only one I can think of is Nomutantsallowed for fallout related content.

    This varies a lot by individual, but I have a Newgrounds account and I post to the forums that are there too!

          Spacebattles is still alive.

          Nexusmods "forums" and pages still have some social activity.

          TBH it’s pretty barren. I noticed that even comment sections are drying up.

          You mean across many websites don't you?

          I definitely see a lot of websites with a comment box that it is just a wasteland lol.

          I am sometimes like, jeez why even bother to include a comment box 🤣

            Larger open-source projects tend to have forums. Here's a few off the top of my head:

            • https://forum.luanti.org/
            • https://tavern.dcss.io/
            • https://users.rust-lang.org/ (and https://internals.rust-lang.org/ )
            • https://forums.opensuse.org/

              I only have a Spanish one in my sight (it is like a reborn, I haven't even signed in yet, I had an account for the previous website) called foros dz.

              I also have some other Spanish forums bookmarked, gaming related but I think they are just dead.
