I was born in 75 and had my first social online experiences in something called a #MUD or #MultiUserDungeon. Think text-only #MMO running on university mainframe Unix machines over the internet before the Web. I got unhealthy and addicted to it, so I am careful how much I interact with #metaverse type places.
Glad you found a space in there. I don't think it's bad, just maybe not good for me.
