What I’d like in social media

[cjsmith]

I’m realizing this morning that social media isn’t social. It’s news, or at least the best most of us get for news. (And a poor and unreputable aggregator it is, but that’s another topic.)

What I miss most about social media of days gone by is social contact. There aren’t places like that now. Does anyone even have time for that?

Discord is a great rock IF you happen to fall into the right chat community (not just right topic, but right people) for you, y'know? I got really lucky.

I know what my luck is like, so I think I probably won’t try there. Glad you have a good bunch!
