I'm just joined a comm for "shitposting": random, short thoughts about unimportant things. I didn't fully realize that a lot of people felt that they didn't have thought out, beautifully written, intellectual posts, so they moved to using other social media where shit posts are the norm. In one part of my circle, we started using "# things make a post" for the same reason.

I'm unhappy with the endless scrolling, no bookmarks layouts of all social media. I like the snapchat concept, where posts disappear after a set time.

On consideration, I think I miss sctive communities more than a long friends list to read. Tsukimine Shrine and Musemuggers were great. Only lj style blogging creates communities, although secret fb pages and blog hops model some of that connection & discussion, too.
