I didn't write nor have I studied the OP but, to me at least, it is the volume of posts generally around the Fool that is the problem. I'm not pointing at anyone but there does seems to be a scattergun approach as to where people post. That results in the oft seen comment where posters can't find a relevant post or topic or interesting link outwith TLF. Viz, for example, the recent new 'The Vaccine' topic where you directed someone to where it was.
I attempt to read them all, wherever they are posted, and take from them what I can, time permitting. Near the very start I was hoping and suggested there might be a dedicated Covid Forum but that is probably not really possible/wise or whatever.
TLF kindly set up the resource sticky to direct people (which includes a link to the 5 main threads) but that has nearly died a death etc etc:
