What Are Your Favorite Forums?
ER is my favorite forum, followed by The Boglehead forums. Other forums I read, but not with regularity are electrical, air-conditioning and handyman repair.
Any others here read forums other than ER?

I don't read it as much as I used to, but if you're interested in barbeque and in particular, smoking using a Weber Smoker, I highly recommend this site:
The Virtual Weber Bullet
The Virtual Weber Bullet - For the Weber Smokey Mountain Cooker smoker enthusiast
There is a web site with a lot of information and a forum with a good group of people that helped me learn to cook meat and a few other tasty items along with how to use my smoker. Can you say pulled pork and ribs

Bogleheads and the MMM forum. Somewhat different perspectives between those two.

And for those of us using kamado style grill/smokers (Big Green Egg is one of the most popular), I've gotten a lot of good information from the EGGhead Forum.
Also, as a fan of Apple products, I like MacRumors.

Elbata,
Those forums sound interesting. Would you mind sharing links?

Besides this place I'll hang out on various sites. Reddit is probably the most frequently visited, there's various sub-forum's there with subject matter from news, finance, food, or treedibles. Today I learned (TIL) and Explain it like I'm five(explainlikeimfive) are generally interesting.

A couple of the performance and car collecting forums are my favorites, maybe PCGS coin collecting is number two and then several others (e.g. er.org) are tied for number three, etc.

I visit the Vectric Forum regularly which is about the software I use for my CNC router along with one called CAMheads which is the manufacturer of my router. I visit a few others that cover some woodworking and starting to find some laser engraving sites. I visit this forum often as well.

I wander around on zillow to snoop at other houses for ideas. Sometimes like Sedona AZ to see the town, or places I would like to be but will never go.
I just found Dollar Street which shows families and homes all along the income spectrum. Fascinating.
City -data to get my fill of people fighting and writing fiction for others to solve. I see why there is a no politics rule here.

A personality forum (one of the INTP forums) which is nothing to brag about. Most recently the Amazon sellers forum. Dozens of others in the past. It would be easier to mention the types of forums I never belonged to, like sports... IDK what else. I even joined a forum for mothers once.
Strike that. There used to be a paddleball forum that I belonged to and something that covered tennis on CompuServe.
And sprinting.

ER and Bogleheads are my favorites for financial planning. I also spend time on several golf, sailing, food(ie), travel/relocation, cord cutting, and automotive sites/forums. I am on forums to learn mostly. In that light- though not a forum, I use YouTube more than any single forum for non-fiction viewing. YouTube is so much more than cat videos and pop star wannabes as some may still think.
