One of the things I liked about Typophile back in the day was how it embraced both type designers and type users (usually graphic designers).
Does anyone know if there are any graphic design forums that have a section focused on typography? I have to admit I'm out of the loop and don't know any.
Maybe forums are just not used much these days with Facebook groups and Discord servers taking over, but I like the open nature of forums and the way it is usually possible to look back over old threads. I feel I have lots to still learn about using type, and generally learn best by talking with others and hearing their opinions and experiences.

Other than that, I know nothing.
Looks like there's an English-speaking sister site as well: typography.guru
More to your point, the forum has a typography section that has some traffic but needs more. GDF is a mix of newbie graphic designers, students, and seasoned pros.
I'm a moderator there, and quite often, I've referred people to Typedrawers.com when more technical subjects come up about typography that most graphic designers are only vaguely familiar with.
