Not being a xxxx, but I wanted to honestly ask about how you square or feel about those that start vaping in order to quit smoking, and then just massively become into vaping, talk about it all the time and the gadgetry and accessories, the community, etc.

I've got a few friends that went this way and it's a bit... odd.

I think it's a little bit silly, but I went through that phase for about a year, so I don't judge the people too harshly. as long as you're not chucking huge clouds at people in a public space, I think it's mostly harmless.

in a way, it kinda reminds me of the pc overclocking community.

It's just a hobby, like being "into" craft beer, whiskey, or PC gaming. Those aren't healthy in excess either, and it is annoying when someone only wants to talk about their one interest, but overall it isn't really hurting anyone else. It's a bit of a red herring to bring that up when Juul is by far the lowest-effort vaping method - you wouldn't have to know how to build a coil or mix VG/PG to use one.

It's because it works so much better than anything else. But then it becomes insidious and if one is smart, you don't keep it around anymore. But for those with addiction issues, way better to be Juul than pretty much any other addiction

Probably the same way you'd feel about a friend that got all into beer and has to try all the "exotics" then goes out and buys a bunch of stuff to brew it themselves.
