you know, what could work to promote it: porn. remember when some non-porn creators turned to pornhub, because yt and other sites sucked? it could work out like that. there's even an old song about the internet being for porn. porn could keep it afloat until it takes off.

So, what's the solution? Ban them all?
yeah, but the OP thinks they must visit a forum to built a specific setup. but that forum is just a pool of second hand info. it can help, but OP doesn't have to, if they dread it.
the guys from the forums don't know those things from the forums themselves. those things have specs. most in numbers. you can read system requirements of games you like to get an idea and then look up PC parts or complete PCs that exceed them. there are standards that say what parts generally fit together. when you know one part you want, that narrows down what other parts can be connected to it. for example, if you think the GPU is most important, it will determine the mainboard must have a certain connector for the card and also the power supply needs to fit, as well as the case dimensions to fit it inside. this is how you build/upgrade a PC. Some stores let you select only components that fit together for a configuration, like this German store for example will only let you choose a mainboard with an AM5 socket, if you selected a CPU that requires one and so on: https://www.alternate.de/PC/PC-Konfigurator
It's still pretty nice here in EU. Our right wingers and other regressives are hurting our region much slower. Our left is strong and fighting back.
There's a lot more being threatened. Tge whole US economy is going down tge shitter and it has global effects.
Not to mention clean water act and food safety, assuming they live in the US.
I don't think you really need those forums. However, why not just slap Ubuntu on a second hand PC, put a decent GPU in and install Steam from the app store? Isn't SteamOS Linux-based anyways?
It seems they are addicted to cyberattacks. They can't even lay low in prison.
wow. that looks so smooth.
This is true, but it's not anarchistic.
