I've lurked here for eons.

When Google dropped news groups I tried a bunch of alternatives. I landed on jlaforums.com which has a ton of the newsgroups available.  It does sometimes screw up links posted in messages.

This post is a test to see if it works on my phone. It didn't work the other day.

I peek at FB every now and then but I find the long unorganized stream difficult to follow.  Forget about finding old posts.

I now have a shortcut setup on my phone to open a new group of websites that includes ][ related sites including fritter, a2central, atariage forums, callapple, jlaforums, and yes top of FB group. Retroroundup is another nice way to catch a lot of content.

What other sites do you frequent for new II?

I do miss seeing posts about new ideas and questions on here. It's the last vestige of BBS life and you can find answers to so many things. I see familiar names on 6502.org, fritter forums and atariage.

I may venture to slack one of these days.
