Where is everyone?

I know it gets mentioned often around here...that there just aren't as many people around as there used to be. I was scrolling through posts trying to make sure that I was catching up in the right order and noticed that there's only three or four of us that I would consider regulars that I interact with. I don't say that to be rude. But there are a handful of people that I consider my myLot people if that makes sense. Seeing just the few people that are still around, kind of made me a little sad. We had Coral and her sister who have both left the site. Arthur Chappel who hasn't been around in ages. Several other friends from accross the pond that haven't been on in a while. @porwest who is MIA, although I do talk to him on TikTok whenever I catch him. @moffittjc has contracted what seems to be the bubonic plague and isn't around like he used to be. And then we've lost some users that used to be around all the time. Maybe it's because I was gone for a long time, but there is what seems like an ever present slowness here around myLot these days. Is that just me, or has this just become the new normal? Sorry this might be a little hard to read, voice to text.

It does seem like people are spending less time on here.

I haven't seen you around in a LONG time either. But I'm mainly here the same time every night. So we might just miss each other. Hope you are doing well! Did you get a bunch of snow this year?

@thislittlepennyearns maybe I’m not here as often as I used to be but I’m here often enough I’d say. We had a good amount of snow on January 25 and because of the cold there’s still a lot of it on the ground in piles.

@lovebuglena We got some a few weeks ago. Not a whole lot and honestly I was surprised we got any. Two years in a row we got snow. Although last year there was a bunch of it!

I think more people are on here in the mornings. But I could be wrong. I am often busy at that time, so I am always playing catch up.

I have actual work to do in the mornings. Gotta go where the money is in the mornings, and plus with kids and other stuff, I just can't be here in the mornings. Plus, I do better writing here at night. Since mornings are actual freelance, I can use whats left of my brain here on myLot

Coral left after her sister got banned (at least that’s what I was told). I miss Julia too.

@thislittlepennyearns Oh no, I’m sorry. Sonja is her sister. Julia is a different mylotter who decided to take a long break.

It is a shame that not as many people are on here. But sometimes it's just the way it is.

I’m pretty sure there are only like 10 active people left on this site.

Sometimes I haven't really missed someone then their name pops up and I've realised it's ages since they posted.

@thislittlepennyearns I'm sure you're right. There has been a bit of tension here for sure which would have put some off.

That happens to me too. Although I don't have as many people miss anymore. Because my views on things have offended people and they've decided I am not worth the time to interact with anymore.
