Is there life out there?
May. 18th, 2026 08:11 pmMy journal is still really new (like 3 weeks old lol) but I’ve honestly had way better luck meeting people here than I originally thought. I’ve several on my reading page now that are at least semi active and I genuinely enjoy reading y’all’s posts.
Not that I don’t already love the little circle I’ve found so far, it’s just that my reading page gets pretty slow sometimes lol. I still feel like I’m only seeing this tiny little pocket of DW though and there has to be way more active people floating around that I just haven’t found yet.
I think what I’m looking for most is journals that feel personal and alive. People talking about their actual lives, interests, fandoms, hobbies, nature, daily observations, culture, random thoughts, photography, long rambly posts, whatever. I really miss that feeling of actually getting to know people over time like the old days of LJ. I’m definitely open to friendships growing beyond just commenting on entries too if we genuinely click, too.
How do y’all usually find new people these days? Communities? Mutuals?
Also if anybody knows journals you think I’d click with based on my own entries/interests and who are open to meeting new people/making new friends, I would genuinely love suggestions because I’m trying to branch out a little more.
Thank youuuu <3
