Aside from HN, do you visit other forums?

I used to think traditional forums were completely dead, but after getting into working on cars I am frequently on both https://www.tacomaworld.com and https://www.e46fanatics.com

Interested to see if others hang out on SW forums or other hobbies.

No other forums: just QuiteRSS and a well-curated OPML file of channels of interest to me (and which overlaps with the HN audience).

I'm still hanging around https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/ but that's more of a sci-fi nerd ish forum than a SW one.

I am rather new on Reddit. And I use the official app. Is there other alternatives?
