I’m really curious where else everyone here hangs out on the internet besides Lemmy.

I myself am frequently on discord with my wife and friends playing games. I’ve also found myself in and around smaller blogs spaces like Kev Quirk and related people. Reddit used to be a place for me to hang out but I never found a community that I felt connected to. I don’t know if YouTube would be considered a place to hang out, but I frequently spend way more time there than I should. IRC used to be a great place for me.

So, where are your favorite places?

    I only hang out here, been spending way less time browsing online, which I’d say is a good thing. Been playing more video games, and even reading.

    Also I’m curious about Discord, when people say they hang out there, do they just find a channel they like and keep up with the chat all day?

      as someone who was heavily addicted to discord: yes, morning routine was basically reading messages from the night, mostly fear of missing out

      I think so. I’m in a few discords, but don’t really keep up with it. However, people seem to be active in them.

      I wouldn’t say I hang out there a ton. But most of my servers are actual personal ones. RL friend groups, my fantasy football league, that sort of thing. Only really active in one big public server and that one I just check in on now and again.

      My wife and I run a very active discord server. I created it for the friends that we have made playing video games, and so we just all play games together and chat on there. It wasn’t a server that I’ve really advertised to random people; it’s just for people that we end up playing with.
