[–] UNWILLING_PARTICIPANT@sh.itjust.works 5 points 10 months ago

I remember this time. It seems wild to me that I used to simply walk down to the coffee shop, just to hang out after work or on the weekend. I remember whiling away hours and hours, often closing out the shop and having to move to another coffee shop to continue a conversation. I didn't even have a smartphone lol it was amazing

And I'm a mad introvert, I don't know what it was about that time and place... would be nice if young people could have that again
