We’re sunsetting Ruby Newbie and merging its content into the Ruby Users Forum.

Ruby Newbie was a site dedicated to helping beginners get started with Ruby through guides, tutorials, and posts aimed at making the first steps in Ruby easier and more approachable.

Here’s what this means:

* All Ruby Newbie posts are now available under the Getting Started tag in the Ruby Users Forum. Link: https://www.rubyforum.org/tag/getting-started * The Getting Started with Ruby Guide is available to download in the Learning Resourses Category. Link: https://www.rubyforum.org/t/getting-started-with-ruby/24

By integrating everything into the Ruby Users Forum, we can build a stronger, up-to-date knowledge base and make it easier for new members to learn and connect with others.

We’re excited for this next chapter and can’t wait to collaborate with you all!

Make sure you signup to the Ruby Users Forum if you haven't already.

In my option traditional forums, especially for beginners, doesn't make sense anymore in the age of LLMs.

You keep your LLMs I’ll keep my forums.

Forum as a task oriented knowledge sharing site? Sure, but even stack overflow had obsoleted that. But that’s only one type of traditional forum, and I’d say a minority one at that. The main purpose was communities and the threats there are the same as they always were - social media, and chat apps. I’d say discord is the biggest impact there

Aren‘t the LLMs going to starve if there is no more organic data to feed off?

I take it you've never been on a phone call, waiting until you get the chance to talk to a real human?

What a weird idea. I've found the Typst forum very helpful a number of times. I've never yet engaged willingly with an LLM, and do not intend to.
