I will have to update my bookmarks but the new URL scheme looks much nicer! I like the UI changes too. Can’t wait to see this on my instance.

It kinda feels like this whole mess is giving me permission to leave. Like when you know that you are in an unhealthy relationship but don’t know how to get out of it and suddenly your partner says that maybe you should start seeing other people.
For boardgames we have !boardgames@feddit.de which is pretty new but already has some fun threads. There is also !soloboardgaming@lemmy.ml and !tabletop@lemmy.ml that are not as active yet.
I don’t know about favorite but I will give my first memory:
This was at a time when our lab had X.25 terminal access (9600bps I think) to some Unix hosts that were on the Internet but we didn’t have proper TCP/IP connectivity to the lab itself. I’d already used a bunch of terminal based stuff: Email, Usenet, IRC, FTP/Archie. At some point I downloaded Mosaic because I was vaguely aware of the buzz around it. I managed to compile it (or was it pre-built? I would have needed Motif to build it), fired it up, figured out how to open some local HTML files that came with it and I could tell that it was some kind of hypertext system. But it had no authoring and without proper Internet access the external links didn’t work. So I didn’t really get what it was about.
But I figured it out later on.
You might want to skip forward about 40 more years to be on the safe side.
