Sorry if I'm late, but welcome back, Mechant! I joined MFGG seven years (whoa, it's been that long!?) ago, so you might not recognize me. I think I might've seen your name before; if I remember correctly, you submitted reviews for at least a few games here, right? Anyway, it's great to have you here! I always like seeing familiar faces return! 
It does seem to be true that Discord is what's now hip with the kids. However, the forums are still worth checking out now and then for the occasional interesting conversation or project. I've always thought forums have certain advantages over Discord anyway, like the fact that it's more suitable for showcasing projects and sharing ideas (due to the permanence of posts) and how they can be found in search engines. I've learned much useful info just from reading forum conversations, including some on MFGG!
Fangame development seems to be going alright around here. I've made several in the past. Fangames have certainly evolved compared to the way they were in 2005! Lately, though, I've been mostly playing the old fangames -- the ones from the 90s and early 2000s. A few years ago, we had a retro-style fangame jam, which was pretty fun! Taco Wario and Mario's Garden Job in particular were actually pretty good!
