As time marches on, more and more young people who have no real connection to the concept of a "forum" join the potential "artist community" that would or could populate an art forum. They've been raised on instagram, whatsapp and facebook. For them, forums are just not quick, responsive & rewarding enough to use. They lack the attention span, the mental coordination and the ability to adapt to a medium that is not conctantly providing new stimuli. No feed that pops up every couple of second with new artwork. No "likes", no quick comment-and-forget.
"Older" people who've grown up with forums (people who are now well in their 20s and upwards) find that there is less and less activity on forums, and so also migrate to social media even though they'd be happy with the medium itself.
