Apple has announced it will permanently close the Apple Support Community, ending a nearly three-decade-old user forum.
The forum, which launched as Apple Tech Exchange in 1998, will be taken offline on November 20, 2026, and will no longer accept new posts.
Users have expressed a mix of nostalgia and frustration, with some praising the community's troubleshooting tips and others calling it outdated.
Apple is directing users to its official support website for future assistance.
