Definitely do, it's fun. (Usually? Sometimes?)

I've had this happen to me. I'm pretty happy to talk to anyone who approaches me so I made the mistake of saying hello to a girl who said hi to me. Being on Khaosan Road I should have known better. Anyway, she kept following me and asking me to engage in various acts for money, or even for "free". I kept saying no thank you, I'm good, but she kept following. I had to form a brisk jog to get away.
Thank god finally.
I'm surprised my first whimsical drunken post got so high up in upvotes. I am also slightly saddened by it lol. I need to up the effort next time .
While you're here I'd appreciate if you'd try out my circa-2001 XP-themed Winamp skin I made with MSPaint back then: https://skins.webamp.org/skin/65771a207ee6f20e922a0022d0fa5f81/XP_AMP1234.wsz/
I recommend listening to Limp Bizkit albums while wondering how awesome computers are gunna be in the future.
Tbh I have no idea, I stumbled across Lemmy from a random Reddit post. However, getting out of Reddit for a bit and looking around what's here now, it reminds me of the early days, and maybe I'm just old, but I think they were better. Maybe at Reddit's scale + the way the web is now just isn't something that scratches that itch for me. If not Lemmy I hope to find another alternative for that. But in order for this to work, you're right, it does need a certain number of users, we'll have to see how that pans out I guess.
The current internet is shit now. There's too much noise and not enough depth. I like the vibe here so far. This is my first post hello world etc.
How did your perspective change?
