I think you're right, and you can measure that crudely by looking at the number of threads in (for example) General over all time as opposed to the past year.
And I suspect it's not about barf, but more about web forums in general becoming less popular. There are more technologies for interacting now than there used to be, especially with the rise of mobile devices.
Would be interesting to see some studies of this.

Above all I like to play.
Yeah, that's one thing I was noticing: General and the KS aren't filling up every day with new threads. (I.e. I can keep up with it nowadays, and I know I'm not any faster.)
If the reason is "people are using other social media", I'm all for it 'cause it would tend to keep much more of the "Yeah, whatever, Dude" and "Hey, look at me" elsewhere.
One thing web forums do much better than facebook, twitter, et al., is make it easier to find historical information. BARF has a lot of "collected content" that needs to be able to be found like it is.

This makes sense.
Really? Any clues about what's happening? It it actually improving quality at the other sites?
*That* part sounds good, but I think we need a few more to follow their lead.

probably because of the increase in public transportation

3 million views a month? Wow, that sounds like a lot. Cool.
(Hmm... lesssee here... about, say 50 page views per day and I'm prolly in the busier half, so say, 30 page views per day, 20 days per month, 600 page views per month, 3,000,000 ÷ 600 = 5000 people per month.)
That's ten times what I was expecting! (Well, at least five times!)
