Question about TFF
« on: June 07, 2020, 08:54:42 PM »

It's not a rant, but a question. I see there's not much activity on the forums. Some topics are pretty old and they even appear unused for a long while.
My question is - Everything was moved on Discord and forum is no longer the main focus?

I don't think anything has really moved to Discord as much as people have just tended to be more active there naturally.

Personally I'd say it's, unfortunately, not too surprising as forums in general really have been quite falling out of fashion in the last 3-5 years in favor of other social platforms such as social media websites/apps such as Twitter, Reddit, Amino, Tiktok, etc; as well as instant messaging services such as Discord, Telegram and Whatsapp.

I agree it's a shame to see the forum having dropped in activity in recent years, especially as one who has been around to see it thriving in much of its prime, but I feel this might just be the natural progression of how the internet culture has evolved.

Thank you for the answer :3 You're probably right and I'm just late to the party :P
I was just curious because the traffic on TFF is pretty low compared to what I remembered :D
I always preferred forums over communicators or social media sites, but sadly times has changed and I simply missed the best moments.

We'd love to see the activity pick up again. My life has been a bit crazy recently and I've been a little distance. Hopefully things will pick up soon.
