I'm with Renee on this - all my online social stuff is either here in the fan fic forum or over on ESO (where I'm part of a few guilds), plus a writer's group on Discord. That's all.
This site has the best combination of background and text color as far as readability for old eyes are concerned. Dark Mode is good, but too long and my eyes start seeing strings of dark text on the real world

I support keeping it updated in terms of server/software - eventually that's going to become necessary. But I am also with our resident Corvus and hope that visually it remains the same, or close to it.
