I'm not gone, I just haven't been on really any form of social media lately. Not intentionally in the case of twtxt... just I guess I've been a bit tuned out of anything online except for the essentials. Kind of an online 'detox' lol.
@eldersnake Ahh glad you're still around 🤗 I have to admit I have mixed feelings myself _sometimes_... I often wonder for example whether it's more important to have a decentralised open social media like this, or to form real social bonds and connections with people. Perhaps it's a failing of the medium (_twtxt_) itself, but I've seen a number of users who basically have one-sided conversations with themselves, or just "post to a wall" if you know what I mean. -- I both don't understand it nor see the point in having one-sided conversations 🤷♂️
Glad you're back! 🙇

@prologic yeah i hear ya, and thanks 😊 i guess social media platforms such as this one are fine as long as, ideally, there's a good amount of actual human interaction, both on the platform and in real life. We are social creatures after all, even if to different degrees.
@eldersnake Agrees. Although in meeting pandemic climate meeting and socializing in person is quite hard these days 🤔

@prologic very true, and easy for me to forget. I'm Tasmanian and we've had it pretty good here, being an island i suppose.
@eldersnake Yeah Australia and New Zealand have been fortunate I guess being so small and isolated
