one of my very dear friends showed pi.fyi to me!! she always knows the best apps!! i consider myself quite offline (very private finsta as my only presence on ig for example) so i only hear about things through word of mouth really, like in general—events, trends, places, etc; i like it way better this way, i like being slightly out of the loop, it keeps me sane, even if sometimes im a little late (this does not embarrass me). anyway this app has kind of switched things up for me because not only am i learning of things at a much faster speed, but i feel very public with my presence & am sharing a lot with strangers which i am not used to anymore (i was hyper online as a teen & younger adult, but a few years ago decided to retreat for mental health reasons). it is such a lovely and sweet and smallish community here though that i feel like i am in a little warm nest not lost out at sea!!! i feel like i can really share here without fear and it is actually fun! ^___^

I’ve become so passive on all other social media. I only sort of use instagram and TikTok. Someone on TT actually recommended this app (I should probably find him). I was interested because I felt like it was harder for me to find new music and I was hoping to find some good stuff, which I have!
This has been a pleasant surprise. I’m so grateful for this space. I haven’t had random internet friends for a long time, and I didn’t even realize how much I missed it! I love connecting over shared interests and ideas. I love that I can be as anonymous as I want. I‘ve only been here a few weeks and feel it’s brought with it fresh creativity.
Personally, I’m more home bound than ever before, so this is my equivalent to getting out and socializing with people (which I still do IRL, just not daily in this way). Thanks for being my friends!! 💗

some guy recommends cool parts of the internet and i was lucky enough to see that video and find pi.fyi :) i absolutely love it, i already got three of my closest friends to download it lol (but i sent them the wrong link so i accidentally only referred one of them loln't... there goes my mug)
i definitely do, i feel like in other apps/social media there's just this expected behaviour or social cues u must follow that make me barely post or just severely overthink whenever i do. that never happens here, it really feels like a journal with cool people who support ur every move, no matter how silly it is hehe

I love it here. If I don’t see my normal peeps for a few days, I start wondering where all of my friends are. I’ve even met some beautiful people IRL!!!!
I know I shared this on a post a while back, but it had been so long since I had Internet friends like this. I think that since this is not a photo or video forward app, it really helps with that. I like reading people’s thoughts. thank you for sharing them!
