Ask HN: What websites exist that are valuable as social platforms?

1•Improvement•9mo ago

I have been searching for online social media platforms where people can genuinely talk and interact, but so far, I haven't found a good website that fits this need.

This is important to me because I’ve recently lost the ability to interact with people from my own country, which has left me without new ideas or social engagement.

What do you want to talk about?

Improvement•9mo ago

Basically I want to talk about my country culture and discuss events that is happening there.

Are people in your country not using Bluesky?

See if there's a subreddit for your country. Even if it's not very active, you could ask what other social networks they're using.

It seems like the answer would be country dependant. I have found a great group of people on Bluesky, but it was very easy to find people who like a band that I follow. I'm not sure how easy it would be to find people interested in talking about your country, but I think it may be worth checking out if you haven't.
