Honestly, I feel disappointment. What reddit was, or at least how I saw it, is not what was on display for the past few weeks.

But my excitement for new things is awesome! I miss the days of stumbling across new, exciting, and weird sites instead of 1 all powerful site. The feeling of starting something anew is fun, and I’m looking forward to learning how to use and defining what this site is with y’all.

Just deleted 1 of my 2 reddit accounts.

This one was 11 years old. Once I get my requested account data downloaded for my 14 year old account, it’s gone.

It’s not easy and will take effort. I think as adults we forget how slow the process of making friends can be. As kids we would spend most of our day with the same set of kids, so we had a lot of time together, but as adults we go to 1 or 2 meetups and give up if we haven’t made connections yet.

I suggest starting small. Search for meetups in your area for activities that interest you, such as a game night or a trivia night - if you’re into that. That way the focus is on the activity itself and not forcing you to strike up a conversation with a stranger out of the blue.

I’m a Waterfox user with Vivaldi as my backup. For the longest time Spotify wouldn’t work in Waterfox, so I only used Vivaldi for music playback.

I use Waterfox because I want to use Firefox, but without the extra junk like Pocket and their ad “experiments.”
