Why have forums *including this one and similar types* have morphed into news links and news bots now hindering all discussion?

I tried Reddit alts and found they are all practically the same shit holes just skewered towards a more I guess 'secluded' audience that hates outsiders which is how these alternates formed in case they have forgotten.

Have you read my post at all?

I just did but you said your site isn't active yet but I'll bookmark it for later. The Reddit link aggregators have made forums practically unsuable now except for smartphone users whom just skim links. I don't think you read your own post TBH. Actually I don't know if I did as Vivaldi has(d) an update where you can no longer bookmark things. You used to be able to click 'Bookmark' and it would auto add it to the list but doesn't anymore. Edge for a long time you cannot bookmark things. I think I found it once a long time ago but you had to click 3 different things to get to it. Opening up bookmarks on either browser is easy but actually adding one is an entirely different matter.
