Yeah but I meant, I hope you’re not trying to go out with people who in the past just used you for sex. This might lead to unnecessary pressure.

There’s some public yoga in parks sometimes, maybe check your town’s event calendar or facebook or something. Plenty of stay at home moms needing exercise aswell.
I’d recommend putting both in your bio and your search preferences that you seek friends and “no, you can’t try anyway”, and rigorously sort out people who don’t respect that.


WTF is this and why would I need to selfhost it? I’m an industry professional with 10 years of DevOps and 5 years of ML experience and can’t read through the buzzword bingo.
Great idea! Which sports? Maybe you can do some team sports or get to know people while working out?
Sounds like a good idea :)
Hope you don’t mean the people you had sex with for attention, but actual nice people?


Call it a cult but
What hobbies do you currently have? Are there any you want to try soon?
Are you seriously asking why people would want to be around you when you don’t fuck them?
What do you want from others which isn’t sex? Other people have similar goals. I don’t have sex with most of my friends, but we talk, go outside (hiking, swimming, walks, …), watch movies together… Countless things you can do apart from sex.
i want genuine connection not on a dating where people are trying to find their prey
Yeah, that’s the shadowy side of those apps. I guess for 100 people who want to fuck you you’ll find 2 who want to be friends with you.
Somewhere my self-esteem doesn’t allow me to do all this stuff It’s more of like why would someone love me,I am not beautiful I am not good at anything
You’re probably beautiful and I’m pretty sure you’re good at something. But both of these are irrelevant for finding friends. People shouldn’t care if you’re pretty or resourceful. If they only like you for looks and things you can do for them, they’re not real friends.
Yeah you should never feel pressured to do sexual stuff just to earn platonic affection. This only leads to transactional relationships. Maybe try to keep sexuality out of the equation when you seek friends.
I have done certain stuffs which only keep them for few days but they vanish when they are satisfied due to which i ended up in self sobatage
Is it possible for you to elaborate on that? Doesn’t sound like a good way to make friends. Maybe stop trying to please people who just use you?
How old are you, older than 18? I have made good experiences getting to know other people through “dating” apps like Boo, where you can set your preference to only meet friends.
Be extremely careful though, people you get to know through the internet might not always have the best intentions and/or lie to you.
If you’re not completely introverted you can also try to join a club or go to events you like, e.g. conventions. Many fandoms and communities have dedicated Discord channels or other chatrooms where you can get to know people before. The same caution should be applied there, obviously.
Why aren’t you in college rn? Maybe you can try to get back there and talk to people? Did you make some friends there? Are you in contact with them?
You already found the solution: get more friends and hobbies (aka options).


Or Coyode (mixture between code and coyote, could be written co[yo]de for extra yo). Only has 4 duckduckgo results so easily searchable and distinguishable.

Please include a short paragraph or a few keywords on what Onyx does in your post.


As if they’d not eventually show ads aswell since charging times are even longer…


Looks cool! I really like some aspects of LLMs but cloud hosting always turns me off.
You might want to rethink the name though as Loki already is a well known log server: https://github.com/grafana/loki
They’re leading you to posts tagged with these hashtags though, which is not the same intention as hashtags in Obsidian.md.
Maybe there’s a way to turn classmates into friends? Especially since it’s your last semester…
