The reason for leaving is noise and its distraction. Noise doesn't have to be bad to hurt productivity; just the continuous notifications of any social platform wear some people down. Good, bad, indifferent, the content isn't so damaging as the time and mental engagement. I can completely understand limiting engagement to the 3 or 4 channels that are most productive. Just like people doing their social media 'fasting'. In the worst case, it's like probing a missing tooth or vicariously watching a car crash, the the best case, it's being an introvert in a room of people that all want to talk about you.Nothing to be gained? this forum more or less made his games popular, this is where this kind of games are getting heavily promoted, i would never heard of his games if they weren't here.
It's his choice to leave but he might as well just ignore the hating comments (which doesn't happen all the time) without leaving, he maded it sound like his thread is full of trolls who constantly harasses him.
You said his Discord is a lot like this thread, meaning it's not that bad as he thinks, therefore i still don't understand why he left.
This is just leaving the posting content aside, purely considering the interactions, without even the thought of posting or reacting.
