What are some good alternatives to Veeky Forums where actual discussion takes place instead of shitposting, memeflinging?
Is there a place for semi-casual science discussion without /pol/ and high-schoolers shitting up the place? Or does the lack of rigour in such a place inevitably attract those types?
You could start by not posting pepe the fucking frog. If you don't have the ability to start a thread with a math/science related topic yourself you have no right to complain. I'm sick of sci too but at least I keep it to myself.
/r/askscience is high quality if you can tolerate the redditors (less obnoxious than poltards imo)

stackexchange is a good place and it has some incredibly bright users on it but I'd hardly call it semi-casual
As a rough analogy Veeky Forums is more like a bar frequented by STEM undergrads. Stackexchange is like the graduate lounge in whatever department you're in.
