I have moved a fair amount of my internet forum time to FB groups or reddit - mostly on regional gardening or local issues. Reddit has some good frugal groups too. NextDoor has turned into a place to beg for money or report missing pets that owners can't seem to keep up with so it has lost its usefulness to me. I continue to come here because I know by now many of the stories that all the regulars here have dealt with in their lives and made them human, ie an online family of sorts.
