"How do I find friends?" is the most common question German influencers get asked on social media. Loneliness has become a pressing issue in Germany, with far-reaching consequences.
I used to make actual friends and have meaningful relationships in german internet forums. We would meet up somewhat frequently. Come to think of it I haven‘t had that since installing Discord. In fact I have not made a single friend on Discord in nearly 10 years. Everyone on there is too busy with themselves, so it‘s not that surprising I guess. There was a time when I was a trainee and made a lot of friends through room mates but that‘s all gone since I moved and the pandemic.
Check if there’s a Disorcd server for your city, you might have to check if there’s a subreddit which also has a Discord server. I met so many people that way, hasn’t really lead to any friendships though.
Already dead? That implies it was active and people stopped using it, but if they justed created it it will take time to become active, just like Lemmy.

I assure you there isn’t one but thank you anyway.
Not even for the next larger city?
Two larger cities created one together just two weeks ago and it‘s already dead.
