sending me memes and affirmations all day.
This sounds like my personal hell. Shows how different we all are.

The affirmations, yeah. But memes? You can’t be too averse to memes on lemmy, can you?
-
Actually I block quite a few meme instances the minute I see them. I enjoy memes only in moderation and I hate group-chat spam, most groups-chats I have to participate in, are muted.

Interesting article!
I haven’t been in a dedicated men only group chat but I can imagine that if you get the right guys in a group it might just be „that easy“. I think it’s a great space to try and model how you want to interact with your peers.
And I’m glad to hear that the author has that support group in his life :)
I personally also find it a bit easier to share heavy topics over texting rather than talking.
