Insert rant against dichotomies: this stinks “it’s either as big as Reddit or empty” from a distance.

My best experience with forums was one where we celebrated the day we got 300 users at the same time. It still felt vibrant, active, nice to be there. In comparison with that forum, 38 000 monthly active users is huge.

Plus those muppets behave like they really want to wallow in their own misery.
