Do you like #bicycles or #cycling? Do you also use an #xmpp compatible chat service? Join our new group chat at bicycles@conference.samwhited.com. Hopefully this can become a fun community space to share pictures, post routes, and generally chat about bicycles.
I kinda grew tired of real time chats as i got older. Takes too much time to follow through it all, and nowadays gets constantly spammed with memes :( I guess old age crept up w me , i prefer the cozyness of taking my own time to “follow” a convo than live chat.
It only gets full of memes if that’s the culture you create (I hope we won’t do that, so far it seems like we haven’t). And I definitely wouldn’t follow everything on a high-volume chat, when you’re on and a topic of discussion you’re into starts or you just feel chatty, then you follow along, otherwise it’s not necessary. But that’s just how I do chat rooms, YMMV.
