I miss who we were back then. Too many of us have felt too much…everything from the world and we’re simply not who we were back then. I know I’m not. It’s made me invest less in what I share and how often I share it.

I think you are right about that.
It's sort of how I think you'd be with college friends as the years rolled by.
Some would grow and accept the change, others couldn't handle their "glory days" being over.

I liked the whiteboards there better; they were more interactive, and you had an option to post your mood.
We had options that connected us to our circles more.
Other than that, friends who didn't come here.

EP before the big redesign was a much better site. The original emphasis was more on the shared experiences and connecting with people who you shared them with, which fostered more of a supportive atmosphere. The redesign seemed to be a response to Facebook and deemphasized the experiences and making those connections. This site just mimicked the EP redesign.

Sharing experiences because of empathy. That's a lot that's missing now. Here it's like a shark tank at times. What about that all the blocking? Just sign of the thing gone wrong

The atmosphere, vibe and attitudes. The quality content. Great writers and creative posts and stories The larger amount of people and not a teeny tiny little community. The options on our profiles. The format and set up where things were more separated.

I miss some of the friends who didn’t join SW., or came and only stayed briefly. It was always about the people, for me. 🙁

The sheer volume of people, the variety of topics, the wealth of actual knowledge and the empathy.

@WelshLovely I think there’s a lot of people here but the algorithm is broken so we don’t see their activity.

@WelshLovely I miss that too

@WelshLovely Yes!

Nothing, really. It's going to be 10 years, I'm a different person now searching for different kind of experience online than I did then.
I miss a person. I hope she's alive.

I miss it how it was. If it was still around , algorithms would have spoilt it like every other social media site

The size of the community sometimes, and a few friends. SW is objectively better though.

More Europeans, more Australians, people from New Zealand.
More quality stories. More empathy.
But it degenerated when the ‘kids’ appeared.

@bijouxbroussard Yes they were a bit of a nuisance in my opinion
peterlee · M
@bijouxbroussard And despite all this there are some really genuine people on here, from completely different environments, backgrounds and ages who you would never meet on the outside world, who enrich your life immensely.

@peterlee That’s mostly what I loved about EP and still love about SW. I’ve done some traveling, but not nearly enough to meet the kinds of folks I get to speak with here.
