@plan-A I miss community. I miss online friends I once had.
These days it's just noise and distraction and partisan division followed by rage. It's puts you off even commenting or trying to try. Better to be walled off than dogpiled and threatened.
We went: SEO blogspam >>> clickbait >>> ragebait >>> AI slop. And everyone's angry. They were angry when anons and "trolls" on usenet and irc. Now the platform amplifies the voices and... Well, it's played out, boring, predictable and tiresome.
I live in a place where I get little contact with people. I'm not working right now and that limits contact even more.

I live alone and I can relate. Though to be honest most of the time I am happy to keep company with my many books. 😉

Unknown parent • •@plan-A you might not want xmpp. It can be locked down but like many things there are issues.
Looking at element, simpleX, session...
