I haven’t tried it. Honestly, I think YBM community ran its course. No one was funny, every post got flamed, it died for a good reason.

I’ll bet one of the major reasons is the Russian and political group trolls.
They flood boards with true spam and make the boards hard to moderate.
Then they have live human agents post real, rule-abiding posts and comments that are fine but boring and make the boards boring.
Maybe the reason this board has survived is that some of the trolls live in Washington and use this bored to find daycare for their own kids, and the trolls want to influence federal workers and try to use this board to spy on federal workers. So, Russia and domestic political groups might have an incentive to let this board live.
Are you Lily?

Lasagna is a grain.
Wow, I can't believe UB is gone. When my water broke at 530AM that was, for better or worse, where I went to ask questions. And you were all there for me. Even Billy! For once no one told me to take it to baby enter.
