Why Do People Come Here?

I look at the feed, and my mind becomes empty. Like ninety-eight percent of the content posted has zero thought, or effort put into it. Most posts consist of the title and that is it; there is no contents to the post beyond that..

I'm not complaining, it is just confusing.

I ask myself this everyday day….. I say “self ….. why do you come here?” 🤔

To be seen, a part of themselves that they don’t let those closest to them see… wants to be free with out Borders. Their not all mindless. Their just asleep. Stuck in a dream.

what's the alternative? I can't leave the house and I like socializing.

@MsSwan Quora is too cerebral and not light hearted enough....I just never got into reddit. My daughter keeps telling me to......TBH, I like seeing the regulars. I get a little excited when I see certain people post....not because they're answering things but because they're clever of fun. You are one of them..
@originnone Thank you 🙂

If this place is an aqeuate source of socialisation for you, then great. Personally if I were housebound; I wouldn’t seek refuge here. In my experience most posts are empty and uninspiring, because of how little effort and engagement goes into most content here. This isn't attack on the website; I would very much like for it to work.

I’m just here to help give people a laugh, hence I share memes or thoughts I find funny.
I prefer the format here for expressing things I feel like saying. Other sites I tried weren’t what I was looking for. Maybe Facebook would have been, except that’s limited to people I already knew; and everyone I knew wouldn’t be okay with or understand certain things I talk about. I sometimes like random people chiming in to say they understand or have been in my shoes.

That ^^^ becomes mind numbingly boring.
People with content and with something interesting to say have been censored. Their posts are not public and their replies are hidden. They are labeled "inappropriate content" on their profile page usually for telling the truth.

A lot of people come here to keep things light and fun.. it’s not really serious.

@Starchild1983 It is more dark and empty than light and, fun.
Starchild1983 · 41-45, F
@Misanthropic well different people have different perspectives

To vent, to get attention or the specific kind of attention they don't get from people in their real lives...

I'm the opposite i get annoyed if i have to read a long winded or a essay post.
Short and sweet posts are better
Lmao he said in a sw post 😅 maybe you are on too much. I come in and out with weeks in between 🤷‍♂️

I come here looking for intelligent people, not much success to be honest 😁
That’s not been my experience. I block or mute most things that don’t interest me.

The community of misfits.
Why are you here?
To mess around.

It was very different a few years ago, more people, much more fun and nonstop activity. I think some people hang on here hoping those days will come back. I come back here now and then just to see if it has.

@Unquestioned It has always been below standard here for me, but I do agree it has gotten worse. I came here because EP was a cesspool that I enjoyed and I hoped for the same here really.
Unquestioned · 70-79, M
@Misanthropic Same here, I enjoyed EP it's a shame it folded.
