I think there are also a lot of users like me, just reading with little engagement. But yeah, idk how we could get more active users. Although I have to say, I’ve come to peace with things not moving as quickly here, actually I kind of started liking it. Only thing that I would like to see more of are more active niche communities.

Fairphone, I guess? But I unfortunately can’t have any of their phones. My requirements are so specific that I have given up on ever finding a phone that meets them all and is better than my current one from 2019. I mean, find something that is small (below 6 inches), has SD card and headphone support, and an open bootloader. That alone seems impossible. So yeah, I’m gonna stay with this old one. Its not like there is much happening in the industry anyway, and its even better for the environment than buying a fairphone for example. And it still runs well sooo. I’d just love to have a zoom camera and an IR blaster, the one I have doesn’t.

Exactly! May I ask, what hobby group was that? Currently thinking about going back to an app but I really don’t want to…

Not a single experience but in general all the ghosting and effort that went into nothing. I texted with so many people, yet all of it felt like the same. After a few days 90% of them stopped replying, and the other 10%, well, either I didn’t want to text with them anymore (but then I told them that!) or something else came in between. I ended up meeting two people. One of them disappeared after two dates and the other, well, we both agreed that it won’t work between us. I just feel like there are very few people that are compatible with me on there. And then, my ex, who I am still not over heard that I’m on a dating Plattform and i heard that she knew. That was the end of it for me. I felt terrible for a day. But that’s half a year ago now, maybe I’ll try it again.
