Forums have always been a great source of information. Sadly most stuff is on the closed garden social media sites but there are still some great forums out there.

• geekhack - These forums are great when it comes to keyboards. I lurked here quite a bit to help choose my first mechanical keyboard.
• Head-Fi.org Forums - This great place to do research on audio stuff. Forums are still the best place to research something you’re not familiar with.
• HostedTalk - Less active than some of the other hosting forums but still useful.
• LowEndSpirit - This one is a lot like Low End Talk. It’s great place to find information and deals on cheaper hosting.
• LowEndTalk - This is another go to website for me when I am looking for a new web hosting provider. As the name implies it’s more low end stuff and cheaper but suits my needs just fine.
• Storm2k - Storm2k is a great forum for tropical weather related stuff. There are lots of knowledgeable posters in that field there.
• The Straight Dope Message Board - Lots of high quality and interesting discussions here about all kinds of things.
• TalkWeather - TalkWeather is as the name would suggest a forum about weather.
• Techlore Discussions - This pretty interesting. It describes it self as a place for reasonable security and privacy and that’s what it seems to be. Two Stop Bits - It’s a site based on the software that hacker news uses but it’s focus on retro computers and gaming.
• WXForum.net - I can’t speak for the weather aspect of this forum but they have a wealth of information in the personal weather station subforums.
• Web Hosting Talk - This forum doesn’t seem to be quite as useful as it once was for my needs but for as long as I’ve been hosting stuff it’s been a go to when I want to switch providers
