@gamingonlinux I'll add Facebook groups to that as well.

I was essentially forced to make a fake Facebook account just to join a huge group that is only on Facebook and has a ton of knowledge and experience.

It's walled off to the rest of the internet and I didn't even know the group existed until recently.

Old school forums are the way.

@Judeau @gamingonlinux Voron Usergroup Facebook comes to mind.

Lots of amazing content and questions and answers out there, and it's all locked up on Zuck site. I don't even bother going on there.

@reprapryn @gamingonlinux The unfortunate reality of this situation is that if you don't ''join'' the group then it's like being stranded.

You might hear some things or have some questions but no centralized place with knowledgeable people to talk to.

I understand people not wanting to visit 50 different forums and that's what made the original Reddit so good. It's a searchable repository of info from various communities but even Reddit is headed south.

I say old school forums! Or Lemmy?
