the internet has become pretty polarized in the last few years while at the same time advertisers feel like they have gotten even safer with what they will/will not accept on pages. Properly moderating an open access general discussion forum nowadays just takes a lot of effort and I'm not really surprsied they just don't think it's worth dealing with anymore.

imo this is similar in concept to how many news sites have closed down the comments sections at the bottom of their articles. It takes a disproportionate amount of effort to manage them for how they are not even the main draw of the site

edit: so yeah I'm not sure there is any "constructive criticism" to give. as someonewho uses CE I sort of wish it didn't end up like that, but it's not particularly surprising it happened eventually and I don't think a compromise that gets what the users want while still fitting within the requirements of what fandom seems to be going for is even possible
