Re: Other than Team-BHP, which forums are you a fan of?

For me the daily read includes the following:

http://www.outsideonline.com/category/indefinitelywild and most of their other adventure subs.

Rideapart.com

Jalopnik.com

Gearjunkie.com / Gearpatrol.com

There are a ton of other favorites that I go to depending on my mood. And yes, Reddit too. I absolutely abhor Quora.

Re: Other than Team-BHP, which forums are you a fan of?

Quora: I find Quora to be informative to a certain extend because most the answers used to be framed by the people who narrate their own experiences. I still visit Quora and answer questions but the quality of the forum has gone down considerably. It used to be a good user run platform but now it's more like a place with no moderation and people just posting anything and everything (even the things which should be kept to ourselves).

Xbhp: Even though Xbhp's platform looks dated and some what claustrophobic, I like reading the old 'tourer' entries and the reviews.

Reddit: Reddit is place where I get my stock of memes.

HVK Forum: I don't know whether it can be called a forum but since it's on Facebook and I don't use Facebook much it's seldom visited. But occasionally, I can see discussions regarding routes, general queries, places and some good clicks.

Re: Other than Team-BHP, which forums are you a fan of?

Currently just Team-BHP. In the past used to be a reader of xBhp for the love of bikes, XDA-Developers as I have always went with custom ROMs once the phone is out of warranty(only exception is my current phone), GSMArena for the phone reviews, Tom's Hardware for anything related to computers, many gaming forums related with SA-MP(a multilayer mod for GTA:SA), and Reddit.

Then there is stackoverflow which comes first whenever I have coding queries.

Airliners.net and Flyertalk.com for aviation related news and frequent flyer's perspectives.

The sheer knowledge of some the folks from aviation perspective is mind boggling. It took a while to get used to the lingo used in these forum.

Re: Other than Team-BHP, which forums are you a fan of?

Other than team-bhp, I visit stackoverflow.com (was a top 4% contributor circa 2012-13) and other stackexchange forums, Quora (once in a while), hdforums.com (occasionally for Harley related info), xbhp- was a member but login doesn't work anymore due to inactivity, visit as readonly guest sometimes, Bulleteers group on yahoo (almost defunct now) and couple of whatsapp bikers groups. Also, mulling to join either bimmerfest or bimmerforums to get focused education on BMWs.

On Facebook, I am a member of multiple groups like HVK Forum, Honda Brio Owners, Safari Owners/SOUL, Harley owners and BMW G01 owners. But, I have muted them all and visit in leisure.

Edit; couple more askubuntu.com and xda-developers almost once or twice monthly

Occasionally:

Re: Other than Team-BHP, which forums are you a fan of?

I love digital art. I was a mod on a forum called GFxBB but that's long dead now.

I used to frequent deviantart and behance but not any longer.

Lately, I've been visiting only AWS forums and TBHP.

Jalopnik's website has become nigh unusable these days.

Multiple unpausable videos, tons of popup and site obscuring ads. The site actually crashes Chrome on Android on occasion.

Though I do have to confess, I still visit it, because of that comments section.

Re: Other than Team-BHP, which forums are you a fan of?

I regularly use Quora and Reddit!

Quora: It's amazing if you have particular questions/topics that you want to know more or have answers for. I hate generic questions like "what made you sad/happy today" which constantly appear on my feed even if I never open them. But quality content and writers if you explore.

Reddit: It is fun and Informative.

Quite sure it does not qualify as a forum, but as a site for lurking or contributing, bridgebase online qualifies. Great site for viewing and playing bridge.

Any other bridge players here?

Re: Other than Team-BHP, which forums are you a fan of?

I use Feedly to get all my requirements on a single platform.
News updates from Teambhp, Xbhp, Autocar, etc. are automatically displayed here and I have been using this since a long time. You can add your choice of websites as per your wish. And its free to use.

Feedly (stylized as feedly) is a news aggregator application for various web browsers and mobile devices running iOS and Android. It is also available as a cloud-based service. It compiles news feeds from a variety of online sources for the user to customize and share with others. Feedly was first released by DevHD in 2008.
Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feedly

Website: https://feedly.com/i/welcome

I check Teambhp forum (from feedly) and Quora (from mobile app) on daily basis.
Tweeter and facebook are used only occasionally.

Gosh, can't believe I missed Curbside Classic, one of my favourites! Added to the opening post. As an example, check out their articles + user comments on the W140.
