Have any of you been involved with or heard of a crypto local currency being used in an irl community?
PLEASE let me know and tag people who might have insight
At first, I was upset and anxious to spend less time here.
My years here have been fruitful. I've made many friends, learned a lot, but also wasted a lot of time.
Its not that I went back to posting on Twitter or anything, I've literally just been spending quality time elsewhere, both online and offline, in person, by myself, nurturing existing relationships and meeting new ones where they are.
Online life today provides less value for me (and everyone else) beyond reading updates to new capabilities and then experimenting with them.
If I were to give a few pieces of genuine advice, which I rarely do since readers rarely appreciate them through their actions, I would say this:
Create small(er) circles and build.
Build locally as quickly as possible.
Get offline as much as possible.
Do not waste time, you've done that enough.
It didn't work then, it won't work now.
Be as curious as possible, until it physically and emotionally and spiritually hurts.
Question your idea of what "making a living" means.

it's bad, sure, but like why stress yourself out?
Need some advice
I transferred my US phone number to Helium Mobile free plan, but it only works in the US, as does Google Voice. So I'm not sure what to do... should I just let go of the US number I've had for so long or is there another option?
One thing I notice on the Instagram feed here is Vietnamese are MUCH more aggressive with ads
Compared to my US IG feed there are far more ads for individual profiles and businesses
