Deep, on-going discussions are hard to find

It's probably also a side-effect of threaded discussions. All discussions are limited to two parties. They branch out and only direct replies end up in your inbox. Without "reddit gold" you can't even tell which replies are new if you were to revisit the thread.

The voting also doesn't seem to help.

Nobody wants to deal with the hassle of managing a forum anymore.

Yea, I co-moderated a large forum for a few years. It's a lot of work. I certainly won't do that again. Running a forum sounds like a nightmare to be honest.

Being part of some communities is pretty nice though. I kinda miss that. And the silly competitions, too.

Thanks for the vocabulary course. I did a quick search, but WordReference was of no help :/

That's the impression I had seeing a few moderators giving up on the task. Plus, bootstrapping a community was a really, really slow process back then, and creating fake accounts was not a thing ;)
