Well what I was wondering is what other social media websites do people know of?

Idk, was snapchat like that? I never used it so idk.

I think twitter is adding more options like that but they definitely suggest stuff.

I think any free service that has all those options is gonna have ads. Someone's gonna run the system and pay for the server space.

That said I never used social the way you're wanting to, so ive never really looked.


Edit: i just thought of whatsapp. Its phone only i think. You can definitely do video and voice on it but not really "social media' from what i gather.

It's up to YOU. If you want to try to continue it, ask the others what they think and decide what to do from there. Stick with the same group? Start another group of your own? If you don't want to continue, let someone else take the helm and find yourself another hobby.

Im thinking along these lines too.

Does anyone here understand how to calculate interest?

Thanks. I found similar explanations online but needed a human to explain it to me.

it's intersting....when you hear interest percentages, it intuitively makes it sound like its some percent of your loan....but its more like just a number that goes into a formula. Its not really a percent of anything.

Life sucks.

The stress and weight of financial insecurity is one of the hardest things while also being one of the things many people have the least sympathy for.

Hoping you catch a better break sometime soon.

From my circle of friends men are done with relationships including me.

If you truly are, great.

Personally i would never be "done with relationships." Im not brad pit so women aren't falling over themselves at me. And im not interested in being celibate. Besides, relationships are pretty nice. Companionship and all that.

There is tbis meme going around that ive been exposed to where men (from what i can tell, young, less experiencd ones) seem to be claiming this? Its like, dude, you're way too young to be done with anything, let alone relationships. Idk if this is a reference to that. There are a lot of folks out there preying for young men's attention by manipulating their fears, angers, or in this case, their everday normal frustrations with tbe opposite ***sex that all men (and women) experience. Ive even seen tbis female youtuber doing it, basically complaining how women are terrible and you shouldn't date them (seriously). Its messed up.

i never was a twitter guy until elon bought em out. i think its worth checking out!

Really the only thing i can tell is different with elon in charge: more intrusive ads, and making it so you can buy tweet visibility in a very sneaky way.

If it wasn't that there are smart people on there worth following inwould not use it.

allow me to correct myself, i mean to say twitter was not something i bothered with until the hype with elon.. the media really made him out to look like a bad guy.. anyways.. so i checked out twitter.. as a non user, doesnt seem much different from other platforms.

I think ADs are always gonna weasle their way in what not.

He was controversial because of his approach to content moderatation. Honestly i have barely noticed anything that wise and it wouldn't effect my experience because of how i use twitter.

I don't know that much about Elon. I will give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he is very smart about engineering and maybe also smart about some business stuff (but not that smart, as buying twitter was such an obviously bad investment for himself that he made at precisely the wrong time just-to-be-a-legend).

But i hate how he changed how the verified thing works, its dumb. If he wanted to let people buy twitter visibility, fine, but don't make it the blue checkmark, he should have made it something different.

Twitter always had ads but now you are seeing them more frequently and even in the middle of threads which didn't used to happen.
