It is unfortunate bec= ause this has been the best place for these discussions. Are people going a= nywhere else? I'm trying to report the spam. This happens periodically. The current bunch seems worse than usual. https://www.reddit.com/r/apple2/ is one possibility, though it's more of a = topic + response format than a threaded-discussion format. There are faceb= ook groups with large followings, which is useful for announcements, but th= e order is semi-random and half the posts are "sponsored", so it's not grea= t for anything you might want to come back and look at later. I'm getting hit with an "I'm not a robot" button every time I post anything= , so it feels like the spam protection got turned up a notch, but isn't ver= y effective.
