šŸš€ Just published my first nostalgic long-form article on Medium! Back in 2008, I built my first forum with a small group of friends. From Yahoo Chat Rooms to IRC, bulletin boards, and eventually a 100k+ member community… I’ve lived through the rise (and fall) of online forums. Today, social media dominates. But are forums truly dead, or have they simply evolved into new shapes like Discord, Reddit, and niche communities? In my latest post, I share my journey of building forums, why they faded, and what it would take for them to thrive again in 2025. šŸ‘‰ Read here: https://medium.com/@bhambhanivarun/community-forums-in-2025-dead-or-just-evolving-59a802956ae1 Would love to hear your thoughts: Are forums gone forever, or do they still have a future?

šŸ”„Most Ads Are Dead Before They Even Launch. Honestly, they’re forgettable. They launch, people scroll, and… nothing happens. The problem isn’t the product. It’s that the ad is playing it safe. Safe ads don’t spark curiosity, don’t make people talk
