You know, an abandoned MUCK populated by people I knew - Who primary made accounts, then disconnected and never came back - Sure is fairly accurate to my experiences just about everywhere.
I guess it was a good idea in theory.
Ah well.
@Phorm Yeah, sorry I haven't gotten back to you about hanging out there. Saturday night get-togethers have still been getting scheduled, I guess, but I haven't seen a crowd yet and didn't wanna tag you in until I saw one. *hug* I have been watching and will continue to do so, because I would REALLY love to get something going. Life's just been... distracting lately. (Wait until you see our squatter neighbor's new "cultural monument" 🙃 )
Honestly, please don't worry about it in the least. There were several people who said that I would be able to find them there, but it just seems like people's lives these days isn't compatible with the MUCK experience anymore. I confess that I'm more or less in the same boat - I don't really log in that often, and work makes it a challenge. I have a lot of fault in not making the place a lot richer, and I should strive to correct that. And I sure as hell don't fault anyone else for having a lot on their plate.
I understand this is the way of things. I'm just a little miffed about "Be on Bluesky or you're worthless", which seems to be the world we live in these days. But I guess that's just something I have to adjust to.
(Also, I hope things aren't too awful with your squatter neighbor. That sounds exciting in a way that's not necessarily good! Sending you all my best <3 )

Yeah, I do apologize. Sincerely.
I have a lot of raw feelings about this very topic. Mostly because it has been eye opening in a very painful way.
I'm not putting my hand on the hot stove again, though. And I accept this means I'll be forgotten and discarded.
I'm slowly getting okay with that.
