I am not joking when I say that I thinked for hours about how do people find each other in 2025.

Currently, the world is in very weird state. People online are either using social video platforms or they are reading news or lurking in online forums in it’s different shapes and forms.

Most chat platforms that I know had shut down and most alt social platforms are almost dead. Even Hackernews had started to see a lower amount of comments compared to previous years.

I want a serious answer, how should I find people online to talk to about anything really other than politics?

    I saved your comment because some of these are now on my todo list and some of them I’ve done recently. I’m also trying to get out more after 2-3 years of being otherwise occupied. I actually went skateboarding again for the first time in a decade or so. A buddy invited me and I even carved the bowl a little. I’m much more risk adverse now though.
