Hey there! It’s good to see you around. Discussions has become a rather quiet place these days, unfortunately. I still check in daily, but there’s not a lot of discussion to be had. :cry:

I think folks moved to the other platform discord the unofficial viki page and a blog or something…

Yes, many definitely migrated to other platforms - places that are less restrictive about what you can and cannot say or talk about.

2 Likes

yes I also think other platforms, but do they have discussions like this, and these?
The closest I think is MDL, and with discussion not too bad, but they don’t show the dramas, they just advertise what’s coming up,
YT welllll, put it on the back burner. not personal like on here, they just talk about the dramas they just watched.
and as for IOQ I don’t know, and there’s more ,which I wont go into at this time.
really bothers me that we don’t have that closeness, fellowship like we did, be it crocheting, baking a cake, recipes, history, etc, etc, etc!!
oh and is it us just giving up?? Hey! I am a senior person, I enjoyed these conversations!!

That was tough. I can usually spot things fairly quickly, but that one was a bit more difficult.
