    Wow, that takes me back. I used to prefer Anandtech to Ars Technica, Hot Hardware, Tom’s Hardware, etc.
    But I haven’t visited any of them in like a decade, so I can see why they might be shutting down.

      I’m in the same boat, in the early days of Android (Galaxy S 1 days) I used to go to their site just as frequently as Tom’s Hardware, TechPowerUp, etc. because they were on top of most new customizable ROMs if I remember right.

      I haven’t had a reason to go back since it has become increasingly more difficult to get a custom ROM on any Galaxy phone, and I almost completely forgot about the site until this announcement.

      Yeah about the same, I visited /., anadtech, tom’s, betanews, etc about daily maybe 20 years ago, but I haven’t been to those in a decade for sure, except slashdot I still go there

        Lol, I still check out slashdot too - although it’s usually a day late with news and the comments aren’t anything special. Force of habit I guess.
