I don't think that the date of the oldest threads on the page is a reason to close the subforum. If it was, Dakka should close the
LOTR/Hobbit section as that has threads last updated in 2020! On the other hand, it has threads less than 2 months old.
Off topic has several active threads. To some extent, this is a consequence of the tendency towards megathreads these days. The firearm thread could easily have been dozens of threads with a handful of replies each instead.
I do find it ironic that this very thread pushed the May 2023 thread onto the next page
Now June is the month for oldest thread update on the front page.

On another level, I personally spend a lot more time in this subforum than geek media or video games, and it is 8% of my post count. I wouldn't argue that either of the other two subforums should be removed just because I don't personally use them much. Yet video games also has a thread dating back to June on the first page...
