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?

What IRC servers still exist that allow random people like me to just join but have interesting people and channels and not just trolls and spam?

[-] amitten@normalcity.life 11 points 10 months ago

I second this question! I'd like to know some good servers with healthy communities.

Probably should not post those publicly, even on Lemmy.

Alternate question: how can we find interesting discussions on IRC?

[-] amitten@normalcity.life 2 points 10 months ago

Sad. Guess we just have to go through them

Do we though? We can just leave them alone and do something else.

[-] amitten@normalcity.life 1 points 10 months ago

Sorry--it was sarcasm.

Follow-up question: Are there any IRC channels where people don't just talk about compiling their favorite IRC client on their favorite linux distro?
