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
