We moved to !casualconversation@piefed.social please look for https://lemm.ee/post/66060114 in your instance search bar
Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

MODERATORS
I think there's that fine line between being "that friend that's always there for me" and "that friend who won't take a hint and fuck off".
At the end of the day, you can only help as much as you're invited to. Anything beyond that comes across as overbearing, and sometimes someone doesn't need help, they just need a bit of space to decompress and the help comes later.
I guess the measure of a good friend is offering support if they need it, and being ready to offer support long afterwards if they feel they're doing just fine.
