LFGSS is hardly a googleable term. And the trends are far from fixed and singlespeed now.
But I also think communication has splintered even more. Things like Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, local and club WhatsApp groups, etc... I'd need to really improve on the forum software to keep track of how people want to communicate about cycling.
I think the combination of trends in cycling, slowdown of cycling as a growth market, and changes in online communication all factor a little.
Looking around a lot of sites seem to be suffering, we're suffering less than others. And the place is still quite fun.

Fun? Cycling is about suffering with glory in black and white.

If I were speculating, that's the direction I'd go.
Ask a teenager today about Usenet and you'll probably get a good idea of what asking a 2039 teenager about Forums will be like.

It is always in the top few results for most cycling related queries though.

Do you think that’s because the fixed thing has had its day? It’s all fatbikes and gravel bikes these days.
Or has the forum driven off any and all newcomers?
