Where else on the web does everyone hang out?
Where else on the web does everyone hang out?
I’m really curious where else everyone here hangs out on the internet besides Lemmy.
I myself am frequently on discord with my wife and friends playing games. I’ve also found myself in and around smaller blogs spaces like Kev Quirk and related people. Reddit used to be a place for me to hang out but I never found a community that I felt connected to. I don’t know if YouTube would be considered a place to hang out, but I frequently spend way more time there than I should. IRC used to be a great place for me.
So, where are your favorite places?
You're viewing a single thread.
I'm still on IRC! There's a raw simplicity to it that I appreciate. You don't have to use a bloated Electron app to connect to a proprietary service, you can just go straight text on the protocol-level in terminal (if you're nuts), and the protocol is open and simple enough to understand that you can easily make your own client even if you're a lazy or mediocre dev.
So IRC, Lemmy, and I guess Instagram (if that counts)
What IRC servers still exist that allow random people like me to just join but have interesting people and channels and not just trolls and spam?
I second this question! I'd like to know some good servers with healthy communities.
Probably should not post those publicly, even on Lemmy.
Alternate question: how can we find interesting discussions on IRC?
Sad. Guess we just have to go through them
Do we though? We can just leave them alone and do something else.
Sorry--it was sarcasm.

Yeah it's feels really nice. I'm not on it now but I remember loving the feeling of it because it's not fucking big tech shit.
Cool, Im going to see how I can sell ad space irc channels this week and then sell it.
