I am not joking when I say that I thinked for hours about how do people find each other in 2025.

Currently, the world is in very weird state. People online are either using social video platforms or they are reading news or lurking in online forums in it’s different shapes and forms.

Most chat platforms that I know had shut down and most alt social platforms are almost dead. Even Hackernews had started to see a lower amount of comments compared to previous years.

I want a serious answer, how should I find people online to talk to about anything really other than politics?

    Or you’ll just be alone with your cats forever because you no longer leave the house, but like it’s cool because you’re fine being alone.

    Would still be neat to find a partner, though, but the likelihood she shows up at my house is pretty slim. Maybe I should order more doordash…

      I never leave the house and people are constantly messaging me online and trying to be friends in a lot of cases.

      The hack is to be useful to people. Then you’ll have friends even if you don’t leave the house.
