I think forum decline is widespread and permanent. Unless this format somehow reinvents itself it's going to dwindle to nought.
If we could understand better why people prefer other formats maybe we could prevent this one going the same way as Anita's fish forum.

I don't know the answer but I can have a stab at the question. What is it about facebook groups that most people prefer? If we had the answer to that maybe we could change this format to satisfy most people without losing the qualities that we all value.
