Social media like Facebook has really tried to ingest all the users of forums. Most of the car forums I am on have lost loads of traffic because of FB groups. Sadly it is not the same there, it is a very low bar to entry lol. As well, most people used to use photo bucket for image hosting, and when they pulled all the free hosting and even jacked up the paid plans, it killed many threads with photos such as DIY articles, etc.
I've been keeping my local club board alive but the traffic is probably 1/3 of what it was 10 years ago.
But on the main topic, I try to keep it alive by making it as easy as possible for users to get to (tapatalk, browser notifications) and easy to copy/paste/upload images. That seemed to be the biggest issue, next to sign up fatigue.
