This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Kind of occured to me Gen Z prolly doesn't use phone numbers

Nah, we do text. Kinda country dependent actually. In the US, asking for insta or snap instead of phone number is fairly common. But text is also common.

In many countries (mainly south america, south asia, and SEA), whatsapp is most common, and that uses phone number as well.

East Asian countries each have their own thing that not many ppl elsewhere use.

Discord is common among more nerdy ppl.

next time I meet an attractive woman I'll ask for her Lemmy handle. Let's see how that goes.

Nah never, don't want them to check my entire account history

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, just ask her for her instance and dump her if it's .ml.

Dodged a bullet there.

What if we exchanged public keys 😳😳😳

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Actually Discord is getting very normie. Pretty much everybody at my uni uses it

[–] odium@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

They also did at my uni, but it was for group servers for classes, clubs, etc.

It's not really the first medium of communication when you meet someone.
