Between the constant spamming of ads on this forum, to other moderation issues not being dealt with properly, and this platform being old and lean on features anyway, what are your thoughts on migrating to a new forum?
I could create a forum on reddit's platform, but it would only really work if there was mass interest in migrating over. It won't work if the community is heavily split.
Reasons to move to new forum/platform:
The moderation wouldn't be to censor people's thoughts/ideas but to delete spam, merge redundant topics, delete total low value shit posts (e.g. someone just calling another person a retard without adding any value to the discussion, etc.)
Thoughts?

Reasons to move to new forum/platform:
- There's constant spam from companies who keep making new accounts and posting links back to their site on this forum.
- There's draconian ads spammed on this site (like the auto play videos that take up a lot of screen)
- The mobile site is poorly optimized/crap -- e.g. i'm on mobile a lot but don't visit this site because of poor optimization (i'm sure others can relate)
- Moderation of any kind is non existent (the admins here don't care because it's the 'free' board)
- This message board platform is old and lean on features
