this article seems to miss why I participate on forums. I'm not interacting with the software, I'm not creating some great post that will live on in history. I'm interacting with another person, who has asked a question. Should I refuse to answer because that person asked the question on a vbulletin system? (* I've never used reddit or discord. With the exception of HN, the only forums I use are old school--small, single purpose vbulletin, SMF, or PHPBB forums.)
