My gf told me that people are suspicious of me because I don't use regular social media :(

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 60 points 5 days ago (1 children)

You don't wear your life on your sleeve like an open wound, that makes you suspicious.

Fucking extroverts man.

[–] poplargrove@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I have an instagram account to better fit in and none of my friends ever really post. Its mostly for messaging, sharing stuff we find, looking at stuff.

Rarely anyone seems to share every bit of what they do, if at all.

[–] atro_city@fedia.io 24 points 5 days ago

Shallow people are suspicious.

Huh, most people just tell me it's relatable, and that they should probably kick it too. Also, Zuck starting to zuck even more openly seems to have helped with the ones who weren't quite convinced.

I had someone on a dating app call me a psycho and unmatch for not being on socials in 2019 or so. Yeah, if that's an important trait to you, we probably aren't a good fit.

Also, shout out to ICQ. And then I knew I was old. Oh shit, Adium. I remember when I loved computers, back before everything sucked.

[–] dosuser123456 1 points 3 days ago

computers were better when the commodore change my mind

[–] TheBrideWoreCrimson@sopuli.xyz 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

A collection of pixels on a screen must first prove to me that they are human, then that we work out as a couple, then that there is a reason to be connected on social media as well. Longest relationship I ever had, we never connected each other's social media accounts. What would be the point?

…and then i wonder why they say im weird for not being on instagram

Ah, youth. I remember being told I was weird for not being on Facebook and now everyone my age hates Facebook with a passion.

Don't worry, time will vindicate your choices. All these apps go the way of the Dodo eventually.

The cycle of enshittification always ends up making them basically unusable at some point, and only real simple people are still using it by that point.

[–] afk_strats@lemmy.world 33 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

I remember when people got mad at me for getting rid of Myspace.
And MSN/Live/Windows Messenger
And Facebook
And Digg
And Reddit
And Whatsapp

They'll get over it

[–] dosuser123456 11 points 5 days ago (1 children)

they kinda did that when i permanently deleted my discord

[–] krolden@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Just remind them all your chats and metadata are still on their servers.

[–] dosuser123456 1 points 4 days ago

the staff gonna cringe a lot thats for sure

[–] Obnomus@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

When I tell people I don't use snapchat, instagram they go like you're weird. (Ik I'm not special)

[–] dosuser123456 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

same but snapchat is tiktok

[–] Obnomus@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago

Endless doom scrolling

[–] introvertcatto@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I feel like I have more engagement with people all around world in Fediverse than I ever did on any other social media.

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 5 days ago (3 children)

I feel the same way about private torrent trackers. I'm exposed to so many people and so much media from all over the world I would otherwise never see or talk to. The media is a big deal, too, because it helps me understand and conceptualize how other cultures view things. When that media is never released to Western audiences, that means Western audiences aren't exploring those cultural ideas.

I get exposed to them because I pirate them.

[–] YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (3 children)

This sounds really interesting. Do you have a link or guide or anything I could check out to look into this?

IRC???
Not even xmpp? That's a decision

It's ok... I guess.

[–] dosuser123456 1 points 3 days ago

its much harder to find mobile xmpp clients than it is to go to web.libera.chat (i like using stuff i can use on both pc and mobile because i move around a lot)

[–] fin@sh.itjust.works 10 points 5 days ago (3 children)

I want a friend who would message me using IRC

[–] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 days ago

I so wish I could get all my friends off discord into a private IRC server.

[–] dosuser123456 3 points 5 days ago (2 children)
[–] 257m@sh.itjust.works 5 points 5 days ago

I think a IRC server/channel full of lemmings would be cool. I wish my friends used IRC.

I just hope for your sake you aren't actually using DOS

[–] dosuser123456 3 points 3 days ago

i used to, until i found out about linux (i used dos because that way i didnt have to use windows lmao, so when i found a distro that doesnt format ur hdd when install i was like, "screw dos, i have a new daily driver")

getting used to bash instead of batch was kinda hard tho, oh well...now that ive learned to use it im back in my usual "do stuff in terminal" thing instead of using the gui

[–] MITM0@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago (2 children)
[–] dosuser123456 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

id use xmpp too if i could find a web based client to use on mobile so that i can also chat when im not home (apps are out bcuz hurr durr parental controls u cant install apps on ur phone...im sooooo waiting until i turn 15 in 2 months...)

A web-based social-media which is also an XMPP client, it's movim.eu

[–] dosuser123456 1 points 2 days ago

ooooo nice :D

[–] DrSteveBrule@mander.xyz 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I recently started looking into more decentralized instant messengers after being on signal for a year or so. I'm happy with signal but just wanted to look into what else is out there. I really don't get why XMPP gets left in the dust. I see so much praise for matrix, but every public group ive joined is full of spam bots and racists. Simplex is centralized. Even as far as the fediverse goes, I would've assumed everyone here would hype up XMPP since it works similarly with the username@instance.com convention.

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 days ago

There was a time when you could chat with people on facebook and google with XMPP. I think when they dropped it the communities using it got disrupted and probably never recovered.

[–] ocean@lemmy.selfhostcat.com 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

lol you can use them for messaging

[–] dosuser123456 3 points 5 days ago

almost noboddy else in the whole scjool uses them. only pcb and me

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Would've been funnier if someone else had posted this
