I do not mean this as a rhetorical question: I mean it literally. Tell us what’s stopping you! I don’t want to invalidate you, but the opposite. I’m sure people here would love to help if it’s possible. Post away!

Personally, I think Covid and the general amount of work everyone does are the two biggest obstacles to community building. Not just for me, but everybody I know. It’s nearly impossible to build a community when nobody has the energy to even play a video game together, and actually meeting up in person can literally kill you. There are definitely solutions, but we need to realize them as problems first to find them. If you have suggestions, please share them! Same goes for the issues everyone else shares (if they’re ok with help, of course).

I have MAYBE a couple hours after 10pm to do things to relax. Until then it's work, kids, responsibilities for days. So, no time to focus on anything for me other than an hour (if I'm lucky) to go be out with people.

Yes, that sucks, but also it's life and too many depend on me so as they say, it is what it is. And yes, I'm burned out but as per usual, but if I'm not actively doing things, they don't get done.
