MODERATORS
The only two that I ever still make use of are XDA for custom firmwares and other Android related shit. And Pokecommunity for the ROM hacking / decompilation stuff.
People still post to lobsters
Not many though. On the FrontPage, the only post that has Kore than a few comments has 70, which is not many, by today's standards.

There are some good Matrix community, on matrix.org as well as individually run homeservers (federated).
is there a matrix client for Android? last I checked there was like, one, and it wasn't very good. whereas there's like 14 different Lemmy apps, many of which are fabulous.

I love how Whirlpool has stuck to it's guns with regards to staying text only.
It survived a world of phpbb, avatars, and animated GIFS and is now surviving a world of social media and "engagement". It's like Usenet with moderation and no binaries.
Helps that it's fast as blazes too.
A1k.org for all things regarding Amiga Computers
I go to mentalhealthforum.net
Blenderartists.org for blender news, learning, and sharing of addons and stuff
If you're into headphones and related encoutrement, head-fi.org is still thriving.
I only have a Spanish one in my sight (it is like a reborn, I haven't even signed in yet, I had an account for the previous website) called foros dz.
I also have some other Spanish forums bookmarked, gaming related but I think they are just dead.
Larger open-source projects tend to have forums. Here's a few off the top of my head:

Tacomaworld, there is another Toyota forum but the name eludes me at this moment. Vwvortex is still around i think. My guild from a MUD i play on occasion still has a forum, as does the MUD,
cs.rin.ru
This varies a lot by individual, but I have a Newgrounds account and I post to the forums that are there too!
I hope Newgrounds implements activity pub
Spacebattles is still alive.
Nexusmods "forums" and pages still have some social activity.
TBH itβs pretty barren. I noticed that even comment sections are drying up.

You mean across many websites don't you?
I definitely see a lot of websites with a comment box that it is just a wasteland lol.
I am sometimes like, jeez why even bother to include a comment box π€£

The EndeavourOS forum to give support (I use base Arch, but they're close enough), the Lutris forums, and Blenderartists. Stackoverflow and similar services, and various issue trackers, if you count those.
The Android rom ones like xda forums are active.
This is definitely not what youβre looking for but college sports forums are active if you want to read the dumbest shit ever.
Iβm from Louisiana so Iβll pick on my own team and link to to Tiger Droppings:
https://www.tigerdroppings.com/rant/lsu-sports/
The recipe posts are actually good. Itβs basically a forum for insane people who get mad about LSU gymnastics recruiting but then post an alligator sauce picante recipe thatβs better than anything youβve ever put in your mouth.
Hereβs the food/drink topic section:
https://www.tigerdroppings.com/rant/food-and-drink/
Itβs insane (compliment) and also insane (derogatory).
A jambalaya v.7.3 ratio spreadsheet exists:
Incredible
I know this won't interest most lemmy users, but the forums for most large american colligate sports programs are alive and well.
tildes seems pretty active
spacebattles as well
and the dwarf fortress forum, too
The Dwarf Fortress forum is most likely full of big bearded dwarves. Also the Elder Scrolls lore community is my magical hangout, Warhammer too.
