This is what the internet used to be like. You'd have a very simple webpage/website set up dedicated to a hobby or something personal that might interest you and put it out there for people to come across and read. I really miss this era of the internet.

How is this soul crushing? Looks similar to an apartment my friends rent in downtown Toronto but larger. Theirs is about 500 sqft with a similar looking deck. It's clean and looks well kept. You know what's soul crushing? Having to live in poorly managed gov't subsidized housing communities that are infested with bed bugs, ceilings dripping water everytime it rains, breathing in black mould, and nothing is being done about it even after media coverage.

You don't let it cool completely but for like 5 minutes. The cheese solidifies a bit more once it's not blistering hot so when you slice the pizza the toppings are less likely to slough off. It keeps the cheese on the slice instead of being dragged with the scissors or slicer. Same idea with lasagna or shepherd's pie, it holds it shape a bit better instead of spilling apart into a mess when you try to serve it.

You maybe should have tried harder to resist.

I suppose its sounds so odd right now because it's new. A lot of company/app names sound kind of dumb until we get used to it. The names Tiktok, Twitter, Kijiji, Snapchat, Bumble, Reddit, all sounded silly to me when I first heard them. Now I don't even think twice about their names.

Great idea! I dislike the negativity in some of those types of communities. I want my city to be more walking and biking friendly but I understand cars have a place in people's lives. Especially if you live in North America and everything is insanely far from eachother.

I miss a lot of my favourite smaller subreddits too. There's way more now popping up then there was a few weeks ago so it is getting better. It'll take time for communities to grow, we can't expect it to be instantly like our fave subreddits were right off the bat. We have to remember that our niche subreddits started small as well at one point. Also consider doing some posting in those slow communities yourself to get the ball rolling. I've noticed it takes someone else commenting and providing content before other people feel brave enough to join in too. Kind of like no one wanting to be the first or only person on the dance floor. Once a couple people get in there and begin dancing others join too.

I feel the same way, liked the sound of Voyager but wefwef has a better back story. Wefwef is also more unique.
