Many, men's years ago, I was thinking about leaving Facebook. I made the decision, and I posted telling all my friends that I was leaving and that they could hit me up for my direct contact info if they wanted.
Not one person reached out. That solidified that I didn't need to be part of that community. Deleted my account and didn't look back.
Same thing for me but on discord. I thought I had built relationships that crossed the barrier of the medium, but they were superficial. Turned out to be a boon, huge weight off my mind and I'm doing more in-person events now.
