    There are plenty of people on Lemmy who feel the same way. Why not organize with them?

      I need to be involved locally and physically. My ADHD and impatience with the increasingly complicated technology we use today just doesn’t vibe together anymore. A brutal lesson I learned after my trade school courses I was attending went to an online format.

      Lemmy’s userbase is just too small and my physical location is a bit too remote to organize anything. I have an alternate lemmy account at another server where I can connect with like-minded people online but that’s as much as I can get out of Lemmy until it’s userbase becomes significant.

      I still search for events happening it the big city but time and distance is a factor I have to take in to consideration.

          No car.

          I’m “content” where I am now. I understand you want to help in some way but sometimes listening to someone vent helps more than any advice anyone can give.

          People like to talk. People like being heard. People like being understood. Being too proactive can easily get in the way of listening sometimes.

          OP’s solved it everyone!

          We all just need to get in our cars that we definitely have and cross oceans to a Lemmy meetup where we amass in our hundreds to bring down the corporate hegemony, solve climate change and live out the rest of our days remotely working together in peace.
