          Reddit. Unfortunately it's defunct beyond repair now, but back in the day it was a nice place to discuss all sorts of topics with knowledgeable and like-minded folk.

            Not defunct and was only my favorite for a very short period of time, but it left an impression and I still find myself referencing it from time to time. Serving the same great content for 25 years!

            I make references to it periodically and only like 2 people IRL have gotten it.

                Digg.com used to be my absolute favorite. Then it got bought out by a company who turned it into a content farm and it eventually died out. Now it's back and owned by Kevin Rose again, and I do like it a lot better than Reddit, but I still spend more time on Piefed these days.

                    Not dead, but not nearly as alive as it used to be.

                          BBS and IRC. Technically neither are totally dead, but that was my introduction to the Internet a few years before the WWW existed.

                            I used to visit Filesoup's forums a fair bit, and Homestar Runner too.

                                Imagine my surprise when I just now typed in fark.com and saw that it's still there and it looks exactly like it did 25 years ago. Mind blown! I might even go back.

                                  Cracked had a 10/10 movie podcast that was stopped abruptly (after it was bought up & butchered ,laying off like 100 staff) & it was the best movie podcast.

                                        YTMND from 20 years ago.

                                        Technically it still exists but it's effectively dead.
