Neither do i. my neat lil suggestion: cohost
i already spoke with @kaceydotme about cohost, got her properly interested in it and now she's considering using it for her Legacy Online community, which revolves around connecting retro gamers with mods that can re-enable multiplayer features in old games and allow for coordinated netplay.
i personally think this is a sick idea for a few reasons:
- i've seen many a post on cohost lamenting the loss of forums and self-hosted blogs for social media and instant messaging apps as well as SEO hell, which all create issues when searching for information on software and hardware we care about
- cohost allows for some decent organization of information to find what you're looking for. short of using pinned tags, a page can use a pinned post to list off tags that can isolate particular information people may be looking for
- you don't need to be a user to see the content.
i could potentially see Cohost as the revival of hardware/software information collections available easily online. im not sure if that's the kind of thing assc wants out of cohost, but i think it could be a pretty sick development on cohost if others haven't already considered/executed on this
