Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

I posted on Reddit once in a while & stalk quite a few subreddits but wasn’t a “regular” user. I’ve been pretty active on Mastodon since the twitter-to-fediverse exodus though (before that I was mostly a lurker on Twitter). The fediverse has been a lot more fun than mainstream social media for me because of the smaller & more tight-knit communities.

yeah, I guess the fediverse/threadiverse is attractive for people like us who have some reservations about mainstream social media.

now that twitter and reddit have caused a mass exodus of users from their platforms, I wonder if (and secretly hope) whatsapp (perhaps discord too?) could be next (it's becoming a pattern, haha, I try to avoid those 2 as well), so more users can move to other alternative open platforms.

Haha I wish for that too! WhatsApp is so entrenched in Malaysia it’s impossible not to use (and not to forget it’s owned by Meta). I don’t use Discord.
