  • ..are there any interesting (and active) online photo communities left these days?
    Not necessarily analog-specific, although that would probably be more worthwhile for me..

    I notice flickr is a lot more active again now, and there's some talented folk on there and interesting work to be seen, yet not much of a "community" any more, in the sense that people share thoughts about each other's work - that's mostly "likes" now and super standard comments ("great shot").

    Looked at tumblr the other day (which I really enjoyed as well back in the day), but this doesn't seem very active now.

    Also seen some good stuff on Lomography, although I'm not a huge fan of the whole approach to be honest (there's quite a bit of stuff shot with all sorts of equipment on there though, not only lo-fi / Lomo shots) - yet hardly any worthwhile interaction between people as well it seems.

    Anybody know of any platforms I've missed maybe?

    Also looked at some forums but that wasn't fruitful at all, seemed to be technical discussions and quite lukewarm photography for the most part 💁

  • discord

  • Reddit? Lots of edgy nudes though.

  • Glass? Subscription model but it has a nice interface both on mobile and on the web. No like count and some nice interactions. https://glass.photo/chris_wltn

    Foto (currently in beta) promises an old school Instagram feel, but not sure how they'll ever get the numbers up enough to be viable. It feels pretty dead at the moment.

    Reddit is sometimes good but a lot of inane chatter in between the great stuff.

    This post has given me the kick I needed to explore Flickr again :)
