You are direct engaging right now, but tomorrow or the next day I challenge you 
to find this same conversation and look up something said that you might think 
was important enough to look up. 


how is that an issue with phpbb???  You can link directly to fb , twit or what 
ever from phpbb, the administrator sets that up.  The forum can save any kind 
of data you may ever want to where it's easy to find.  Drawings, files, photos, 
jokes, databases, easily findable (after all, it's a huge filing cabinet 
available at the touch of a finger) and you can have email notices when 
somebody posts something you're watching.

  The platforms actively eliminate that. They want direct engagement

    My problem is that I don't get to choose the platform. 

    I have groups I want to participate in which are on Facebook.  I have 
organizations that I want to follow who tweet everything.   Others use 
Instagram or perhaps even tiktok.  Oh,  and don't forget youtube and reddit.

    As I'm not a regular user of most of those platforms, I miss out on those 
discussions.    I really want a feed aggregator where I can visit a page and 
see all the new stuff no matter where it came from.  Bonus points if I can also 
follow the comments on sites like Facebook.

      have you thought about using a community forum platform?  There are 
several similar platforms, here's one: https://www.phpbb.com/ These are way 
better than a mailing-list.  You can post stuff for reference for all the 
members to read and see and you don't have to worry about FB changing the 
game-plan on you or worry about losing stuff cause you haven't looked at it for 
awhile

        Yeah, not looking for the drama, just the discussions.  

        I'm in some of the fb groups.  I just haven't figured out how to 
consistently remember to drop by and see what is going on,  and also how to get 
FB to reliably feed me what's actually new in the groups I actually want to 
follow.    I realize the second part is likely "the algorithm" doing its job 
and also my lack of active Facebook usage causing me to not have the experience 
that others do in following all of these discussions. 

        I keep hoping someone will come up with a magic service that can tell 
me about all the things I might want to read on all the platforms.  I know some 
of the social media aggregators are pretty good,  but last I played with them 
they really were about managing a social medial presence instead of reading 
social media.

          @Forrest it's on Facebook where it's more live chat and less email.  
This situation is definitely something to avoid because of how ridiculous it 
is, but everyone's entitled to their opinions...

            Can I ask where this drama is going on?    

            I still haven't found the 'new place to hang out'.

              Could someone please explain the controversy surrounding Claude 
to me?
