I just watched this video by Kurzgesagt
And it reminded me of how I've drifted away from everyone here. I used to have like a million friends on here, we'd talk almost every day, in fact for awhile I spent basically every free minute I had on this site talking to people, and the more people left the more I drifted away and wasn't able to make new friends. Now I only come back every once in awhile, to lurk awhile before inevitably closing the tab and burying myself in my eternal loneliness once again.
These forums are probably where I got the most sense of community I've ever had. Actually having people to talk to, people that you know. I want that again, but it takes so long for something like that to occur that I never stay interested in a group long enough for it to happen. And even if I do, so many forums and discord groups and stuff that I find, they're so large I can never hope to know even half of the people there, and the places where smaller groups talk is always dead, so conversation never really happens beyond "Hi" "What's up?" "Not much" "Same"
I want something like I had on this site again. Hell, if it could be here that would be great. but although people do seem to be coming back, it's like how I'm doing it. Just randomly appearing and then disappearing after a little while. And it's been so long since my "generation" on this site, that we're getting into a period where people are coming back for nostalgia that joined after my activity dropped off in like 2017 or something.
There's not really a point to this post. I guess I just wanted to get some feelings out there. I can't exactly make a TL;DR either so if that's what you're looking for...well, I can't help you.
Also I'm going to be turning 19 soon. I joined when I was 13. Even if I haven't been active that whole time, that means I've been here 5-6 years...crazy.
