>>108973191>Why are all platforms dying at once?People want to talk to AI instead.
>>108973418You know what that sadly and unfortunately explains everything....people are starting to have AI psychosis of falling in love with their chatbots. So cringe. Like sad cringe...
>>108973191Just talk to people IRL man
>>108973647>tfw you're always the one starting conversationsSometimes I hang out with people from work, and they're really cool people (lol, comparing to my 0 friends, anyone's cool). But I know in my heart that they'd never even think about texting me after I leave my company. But that's an option for OP if he's employed.>>108973191Back in college I actually met people through this shithole. They were mostly annoying fucks, but I /did/ technically meet them through 4chan. The coolest guys were actually the weebs, cause they didn't give a shit about [political events of 2015 and 2016].
>things i don't like are deadshut the fuck up mouth drooling retard
>>108973191/mlp/ a while ago had some fag make a pin drop map for anons to throw pins in.I met two local anons and they’re good people, third was from another thread and not on the meetup map. I don’t get how people even use garbage like pisscord, shitbook, or normie-centric “social media”. It’s hard to explain but everything feels very fake, performative, gay, and “engagement” driven online, people aren’t content with doing things for themselves or their friends anymore, it all has to be about popularity or “how do I get money from this”. Still going to call /mlp/ the highest quality board on the site in terms of shared culture and community, it gatekeeps retards by virtue of being easily filtered if you know jack shit.
>>108973191>meetup paywalled and deadfuck private equity
>>108973704? I've tried building local communities on all of those platforms or asked the preexisting community for local recommendations for random things and got nothing...
>>108973819Are there even any alternatives?
>But I know in my heart that they'd never even think about texting me after I leave my company. Been dealing with this myself...it's something I knew all along that work friends are never real friends, but it's all still so...silent. All of a sudden. I anticipated more gradual tapering off distancing rather than the abrupt silence...
>>108973191>How is NextDoorit remains the #1 app for destroying a community fwiw
>>108974353ok so not even worth trying, got it! Not surprised at all...
