I’m trying to never go back to the other place, but the thing I miss is that there was always a lively conversation going on somewhere. On lemmy, it seems people don’t want to just have a conversation-it’s either serious or techy- I’m looking for light conversations?

Does this happen anywhere on lemmy where responses to your comments come sooner than a day, and people are just sort of in the ‘lobby’ chatting?

    Yeah, I know I’m really in no place to complain considering I’m a transplant too, but even in just the few years I’ve been here I’ve seen the changes. Apartments where there used to be a neighborhood, down to earth local businesses closing to make way for generic northeast-esque city stuff. I moved here with my family when I was still in high school, and I like it, but I’m pretty settled on leaving before I settle down here permanently. Hard to say where to though.

      I mean, it’s happening anywhere there are tourist attractions. People come for a visit to FL, go back to New Jersey or wherever and look around and ask themselves what the hell they’re doing there, sell the farm and move down. At a rate of 1000 per day

        Now that I’ve lived near the ocean for a few years I think I’d be pretty bummed living somewhere away from the coast, but it seems like everyone’s realizing how nice it is lol. At this point I’m not opposed to leaving the US if all the chill places with low cost of living keep disappearing here.

        I need to get up at like four tomorrow so I’m gonna smoke a bit and try to get some sleep, gnight man!
