The boards are dead
My usual suspects, fhf, parenting, etc are all quiet. The first page of each goes back a day. Pregnancy 5 days ago and others much longer.

The boards are dead
I know, it's been slowing down a lot the past year or so. It used to be a great way to pass the time if I was bored at work!

Re: The boards are dead
Yes!
I just think message boards are dying out. Everyone has gone over to FB. I don't really like FB that much and I think that has also died down a bit, too. Or maybe I'm just too busy these days.

Re: The boards are dead
I'm not a fan of fb boards so I'm sad to see it dying down here.

Re: The boards are dead
I hate FB message boards. They suck compared to a message board like this.

Re: The boards are dead
Yeah, I am part of my town private message board and the format is absolutely not as good as this one, but search works so much better.

These boards are the best. Like others mentioned, FB boards aren't the same, and I find them catty and disorganized.

These boards are so slow I read and comment on things here and there but honestly if I have a question I ask on my Facebook boards (home related board and mommy boards) before this because I know I'm sure to get a bunch of answers and quickly.

The boards are dead
I think it would help if it the format was more user friendly for phones also. When I have down time its usually at night when Im in bed/on the couch, or when I'm in the car waiting to pick up my daughter so I'm on my phone, but I don't usually think of opening this site up through internet page on my phone.

ITA. I wish they had a mobile app. I find the site VERY annoying to use on my phone in general.

Curious- I have an android phone and I find the format and usage exactly the same on my phone as on the computer. What differences do you guys see when trying to post from your phones?

I actually like the current setup on my android better than the beta version of the mobile version they were working on a few years ago.

I have an Android too but I can never seem to post pics from my phone. Using the LIF emojis is kind of annoying too, the screen jumps around, I have to use the back arrow. It's just a PITA.

It's mostly the resizing/zooming in to see the posts or write posts. Also the scrolling is weird sometimes since you can't see the whole screen, you have to zoom out to scroll then zoom back in to read.

Re: The boards are dead
I also think people are posting on FB groups more. I also find that I can get an answer to a question more quickly, although this site allows someone to remain anonymous.... however I usually only go on while I am at work to pass the time and have access to a computer, because I don't like going on it on my phone.
