@SavosAndSavos I'd rather places like FA and DA exist, than not. The internet is too sterile and centralized, nowadays. The web was creative and brilliant, then normal people joined en masse, and then it had to be controlled. We play in the ashes of better days.
@DOGS0UP I feel you, but I'm managing ok by casting a wide net - multiple platforms (but ofc only if it's manageable for yourself) and just striking up little conversations
that's not to say the landscape of socials hasn't drastically changed over the years, but...
