This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Nah, we do text. Kinda country dependent actually. In the US, asking for insta or snap instead of phone number is fairly common. But text is also common.
In many countries (mainly south america, south asia, and SEA), whatsapp is most common, and that uses phone number as well.
East Asian countries each have their own thing that not many ppl elsewhere use.
Discord is common among more nerdy ppl.
next time I meet an attractive woman I'll ask for her Lemmy handle. Let's see how that goes.
What if we exchanged public keys 😳😳😳
Nah never, don't want them to check my entire account history
Yeah, just ask her for her instance and dump her if it's .ml.
Dodged a bullet there.
Actually Discord is getting very normie. Pretty much everybody at my uni uses it
They also did at my uni, but it was for group servers for classes, clubs, etc.
It's not really the first medium of communication when you meet someone.
I'm Italian and AFAIK everyone uses Whatsapp here.
