@vga256 Actually social media also did not lead to long-lasting friendships for me (also not today), but I know it’s different for others. They rather led to me finding interesting people, and friendships started on other platforms I found that way.
IRC, email lists and forums did, though.
@ArneBab 😂 it has been a real mixed bag for me. i’ve had a couple of long lasting friendships from the twitter of 2007-2012, but nothing after that.
glad you mentioned irc! I’m still in contact with a few people from my irc channel that is now 29 years old and still going :D
