That first part is eerily similar to what I was about to post.
In 2011, I was a lonely introvert. I spent my time binging TV shows and reading.
In 2012, on an IRL meetup thread on the 4chan x (paranormal stories) board, I met a new friend. I think deciding to meet them was the critical moment. They introduced me to a local arts and crafts club, a certain sci-fi fandom, and Minecraft.
The arts and crafts club became the basis of a friend group that is still my main friend group today. They brought me to a local convention in 2013 where I discovered I was trans.
In that sci-fi fandom, at a 2016 convention, I met my current partner, and a bunch of new friends.
I played a lot of Minecraft from 2012 to 2016, but then my partner in 2016 introduced me to Factorio.
