Summary
This discussion at FriendZone | Make Friends ⋅ Fun Chill Active Chat ⋅ VC Social Gaming ⋅ Memes ⋅ Nitro Emojis ⋅ Anime explores the paradox of modern hyper-connectivity. Community members debate whether global access to people has diminished the quality of our relationships and the importance of setting boundaries. It is a thought-provoking look at whether we should prioritize deep, meaningful connections over having a large network of acquaintances in an increasingly digital world.
so now that anyone can reach anyone on any side of the world, are we satisfied, or that wasn't the problem (distance)to begin with in the very beginning
Life
That's a complex answer
Can you water it down
I can say its life
Thats whats wrong
More confused
Ask chatgto
Im on a brain break
My bad 
Its fine its js damn early rn
And had used my brain to much yesterday
For takes
I guess I will have to wait till you power up then
Taking time
I will wait
Distance was not the issue, connectivity was
So are we okay with it this way or we don't want to fix it
Also I don't think we were ever meant to know alot of people (too much connection isn't connection)
Actually its life and control and manipulation
Thats whats wrong
What's wrong is people love to mess things up as always
Is that a gud thing?
Hmm. All of us do that?
Well no, messing stuff up isn't good
Making mistakes is fine tho
Yet we do it
Would you rather be able to talk to anyone in the world or just have the ablity to talk to 5 people (I don't mean like inability to speak, more like connection)
Which do we actually want, hyper-connectivity or depth?
Well u can have both in a world like this, ppl u can speak to in depth and others u just meet randomly
Life was not desinged to have everyone talk to everyone
Social media defiled true essence of life
I guess so, yet we are not okay with having both in a way
Would it be okay to tell people they are only aquintance and not close friends?
Yeah. It helps show boundaries
Exactly
I would rather have 1 solid friend through my life time then 50 friends
That would also require you to have a definition of what a friend is
Which I unfortunately attached to basically anyone I talk to
Wow, wouldn't that be a burden on the 1 person?
Wont be if the one person also has the same opinion
Hmm. Most people do struggle to be on the same page
Anything wrong with people
We are all people
Yes, people r the ones who caused issues all the time
Huh
Hm good quesrion
What is a contributor role
So why u tell everyone to get that rome
