As someone who found friends and community exclusively through the online world back when I was a teen, 💯

@Gargron so why are you moving there then, by all means??!
@Irisherself This is a bit of a silly question when you think about it for a bit, right?
@Gargron 👀 if you're going to fix them then leave tomorrow 🤞
@Irisherself Have you ever moved country?
@Gargron yes a few times... continents too... I wish you well and apologise if you would think otherwise
@Irisherself Then you should surely understand how much time, effort, and money goes into it? And that it's quite impractical to turn everything around 2 weeks before move date because of something that just happened?
@Gargron but they (postbrexitUK) have been bad for so long now 😞
@Irisherself If you start following any country's politics you start finding stupid laws and politicians, what other anglophone country where some friends and family live do you think I should be moving to instead?
@Gargron Croatia, and nevermind other people or language 😅

@Irisherself really?
You think Croatia has no problems similar to (or worse than) the UK..?
Interesting/weird take

Good on some things bad on others - just like most places.

In Croatia, resurgent far right shifts political climate

For years, Croatia has been a shining example of Balkan progress and a cooperative partner within the European Union. But over the past year there's been a worrying shift in the country's domestic politics.
