I like building crypto apps and learning new things.

cant express how much i agree and can relate to this. well said, especially the dating/hikikomori part

its unlikely fixable, and frankly it sucks. but humanity needs to get through these times since its unavoidable

trying to build something people will actually like (petrock.life) / currently working on: 3d modeling & game dev

This quote in particular was tough 

“and though one might be tempted to try and save the world with this knowledge, it is a very large ship headed for the rocks. it is far more practical to ensure you have a safe spot on a lifeboat than it is to turn the ship around.”

thats why people should try to connect and communicate more. at least try, in any ways. because living solo is an easy path to madness

fully agree. need a narrower visibility -> smaller community leads to more visibility. this is one of the reasons why i love farcaster. need to strengthen one small cozy corner instead of trying to spread yourself on everything at the same time chasing clout blindly

for sure - I hope we’ll see a return to irl events. Read an article the other day about how genz loves malls because of that, and farcon being successful is another signal.

I’m also somewhat hopeful that a new generation of social networks (like farcaster) can help people connect in more cozy corners vs the bigger town squares like X/Threads
