  16. #socialisolation, #socialmedia or #partialsocialmedia

    In recent months I have cut down on #socialmedia use, I have largely withdrawn from posting how great I am at my job on #linkedin, or indeed using it at all. I have also reduced #twitter to almost nothing, and #facebook is used even less. I have however continued to use #mastodon. The only issue with the latter is that I feel it is often an #echochamber for myself. Hence, I am not really sure if I am actully being social on media any more.

  21. The culture of 'dropping in' has withered away in Australian cities in particular. Even before the pandemic it had waned, but the pandemic has really reinforced habits of social isolation.

    How can we revive this act of friendship AND be considerate of the person we are dropping in on?

    One thing I think is important is to first ask people if they are free for a visit.

  23. 'Third places' have a number of characteristics including "neutral ground, where social or financial status is not important, where conversation is a main activity. They're also accessible and homely."

    Third places are valuable community, social spaces. Cafes, pubs and restaurants are not third places because there is a requirement to spend money in order to socialise.

  25. Socialising often costs money so people without money can become more socially isolated. This is something to be mindful of when organising to go out with friends and family or if you are a member of an organisation that puts on events.
