If I had to pick a favorite, it would be Reddit if that counts. However I have been taking a break from Facebook for about two months now since it's too toxic. I occasionally log into my X account, but again I rarely check that platform as well because it's even more toxic than Facebook is. I have a bluesky account,but I don't log into it that often.

I don't see anything wrong with using free tools and charging others for your services. It can become expensive if you're wanting to use paid tools, and if you don't have the funds to pay for paid software using free software is a must. It comes down to skill. If potential customers see your skills and decide to hire you, it shouldn't matter what software or tools the freelancer is using IMO.

I think general discussion forums are the easiest to build. They're a bit more difficult to get activity on though, so that's one downfall of starting one. However, you can easily come up with fresh, new content to your forum since you could literally talk about whatever you want. As for the hardest, gaming forums are pretty difficult to pull off these days unless you have one that's based around one specific franchise. Even then if it's something that's really popular, there's probably already tons of communities based around that one series.

Have you ever been lucky enough to get to beta test a game before it was released? I got to beta test a upcoming Sonic game called "Sonic Rumble" that's due to come out in Winter. I usually don't like multiplayer games, but this game was tons of fun and I can't wait for it to be released in the Winter. I also got to beta test a Sonic fan game and ROM hack in the past, but this was the first time I ever got to beta test an official game from Sega.

We've got four seasons here in the US, though I live in Missouri and our weather can be chaotic at times. I prefer winter, and fall the most and I also like spring. I hate summertime though, it's too hot, humid and not to mention there's too many insects everywhere. I'm not a fan of insects or the heat, if I could live in a state that was mainly cooler most of the time I would move there but I can't since I don't have the funds to do so.

I prefer to play single player games because they're less stressful than multiplayer ones. Most multiplayer games are competitive, and I'm already a sore loser when it comes to playing games so that just stresses me out more if I lose lol. Plus if you start playing co-op games, then you need to set aside time to get online and play with your guild. I much rather just chill and play single player games.

I am currently tired. I usually am after a long day of work, but thankfully my work day went by pretty fast. I only have one more day until it's the weekend again, I had a short week this week since it was a Holiday here in the states on Monday.

For animated shows, Teen Titans takes the spot as my most favorite cartoon of all time. I love how serious and goofy it can be all at once. Plus I love the animation style, and think the 2003 animated series had the best character designs. As for live action show, my favorite would have to be Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

My favorite niche is gaming, followed by general discussion. I know there's tons of gaming related sites online, likewise general discussion forums but to me it's fun to work on these types of communities. I've been a gamer for 30 years now, so gaming discussions come natural to me especially ones based around my favorite gaming franchises. General discussion forums are chill, because you can literally talk about whatever you want.

The Sonic the Hedgehog is my favorite gaming franchise in general, but my all time favorite hands down is Sonic 3 and Knuckles. I love how each character has his own paths to take in each level, heck I just discovered a new path that I never usually take in one of the zones in the game. (I honestly can't remember the zone off the top of my head but I was baffled that I never took the path before...)

I don't like smoking, I think it's a nasty habit. My parents were smokers, my mom is a chain smoker. My sister also picked up the habit but she's stopped smoking since having kids. Thankfully I never picked up the habit.

I own one blog and a few different forums. I find managing a forum is easier than managing a blog. I have more experience working on forums than blogs too. Sometimes it can be hard for me to keep up with my blog and come up with articles, whereas posting on forums tend to come natural to me.

Hello [mention=8]fords8[/mention] and welcome to AgoraForo! Great seeing you here, hope you enjoy your stay!

Hey Al, great seeing you here! I'm familiar with OBS, I use it to record footage of video games for my Youtube channel. Anyways I hope you enjoy your stay here at AgoraForo!

What game are you currently playing? Lately I've been playing Sonic 3 and Knuckles as well as Sonic Unleashed on my Xbox Series S lately. I am stuck on the final boss in Sonic Unleashed, maybe this weekend I'll try beating Dark Gaia again. I completed Sonic 3 alone as well as Sonic and Knuckles alone with Sonic, I'm currently playing the full game with Sonic and I'm about to finish Sandopolis Act 2.

I've never done this myself though I do have a few domains I'm not using. I wonder if it'd be worth giving it a shot eventually, sometimes I like to hold on to domain names just in case I get an idea of what I'm going to do with them.
