Well as a Cuban I don't care who makes arroz con frijoles negros/potaje and sells it haha. There's a meme of Trump saying "this is why I won" that would unfortunately be perfect for these articles

Predatory? Stolen intellectual property? Sounds like Oregon (not very diverse, last time I visited) still has a major stick up its ass. (Or at least some very obvious discomfort over their own lack of diversity).

In Texas, you get all kinds of people making delicious burritos. Hell, the best fajita tacos I've ever had were made by an Asian man with a little cart set-up on campus. He also did what industrious people do -- questioned the experts to hone his cooking -- and there was no student uproar.

Is it just me or is styleforum activity really down since the switch? I notice most of the threads I'm subscribed to don't get much conversation and if there is it's definitely very short lived unlike the older days

It's down but recovering, as expected. The highest attrition and slowest recovery is in Streetwear&Denim, as expected, for a number of reasons, mostly obvious. Key threads are fully recovered, but it's not been uniform across the board.

Curious what are the reasons?

The demographic overall is simply less resilient to even minor changes in technology and/or breaks in service. This can be seen on many platforms.

you are speaking about sw&d crowd or general SF crowd?

Neither, specifically. I'm talking about the demographic that tends to post on Streetwear and Denim topics, the "talent pool" so to speak. Both recruitment and retention tend to be harder.
