I don’t disagree.

Telegram was a little awkward for me at first, after being spoiled by the inimitable ease and user friendly FR— the most sophisticated social platform-concept, Ever!

I disconnected one year ago from TV, the landline, and ditched that hateful laptop and “Blinky” the wifi, for my move.

Stuck, then, with only a not-Smart phone and a bitty keyboard, but, so Loved turning the savings into more Fun-money that I’m not going back. (Yet.) (So far.)
(Maybe).

Repulsed by FB and Twitter from their conception, and their creepy founders, and my meany PC puts me in a corner, electronically. I can’t DO anything. But type.

As an info addict wading into the Awakening, I found Telegram irresistibly exhilarating, but so far, only at Whiplash 347. (No kiddies seem to play there, either.) 🤸‍♀️

I so agree! The early internet was beautiful and elegant in its simplicity, before they made all the clutter possible This site hearkens back to that former time, in such a good way.

I hardly ever get out my tablet or laptop any more, although I should, just to keep their batteries going... they were mainly for travel, which I haven’t done since my parents passed away.

But my PC setup is rather nice. The monitor’s screen is about the same size as the one on the last TV I owned, which was in the previous century. But it’s much easier on the eyes, and definitely not as heavy or hot! LOL
