Friend making wise, I’ve been trying to reach out to interesting sounding people on X and on Reddit.

I’m still trying to figure out how to sound casual and just interested in chatting and not having the first message sound too weird.

But I’ve made a couple friends and had a bunch of good chats.

I wish reddit, X, and even HN would be more encouraging of direct messaging people. That would mimic real world networking better where you’re usually breaking off into one on one or small groups.
