The mailing lists never died or lost their relevance.
Bitcoin Talk was weird. Kind of too captured and closed but trying to be open at the same time. Some things were allowed like ponzies run on Bitcoin but talks about block size or other coins not so much.
Reddit was moderated by the same team, so it suffered the same moderation issues but with less structure now. On Bitcoin Talk at least there were the different channels to keep people on topic. Bitcoin Reddit died for me due to the unmanageable flow of noobs asking the same questions a million times over dominating the sub.
Xitter and Nostr are more "social" than the others as you follow accounts and not a broad topic where idiots can spam you indiscriminately. But on Xitter you are at the mercy of Musk who already silenced all that don't want to pay and dox themselves.
