Daniel X 🍕Isn't it weird how the internet has made everyone more connected, but all we can see is a growing universal loneliness?
:two_hearts:Euphoria@danielx You know, I often thought that way, too, until discovering Mastodon. I've felt far less lonely since then, and I believe other lonely people I've connected with have too. At least I hope they have.
@Euphoria true, it could just be that we trick ourselves into wanting more and the friendships are in our hearts all along :)
@danielx Well, it's nice to be in touch with people that seem to share our interests, values & goals. Sure helps to keep conversation interesting, doesn't it?
@Euphoria for sure, though it's a careful balance to not accidentally get lost in an echo chamber. That's why Mastodon is really interesting to me right now, a large intersection of all kinds of people exploring the internet together
@danielx Nice, isn't it? It seems like a very special "place" at a special time in history. It'll be very interesting to see how it progresses. It's already changed so much since I joined about three weeks ago.
Kind of mind boggling!
