It would be cool to have Lemmy pen pals. Asklemmy, what are your hobbies and what's your life like? (lemmy.ml)

I posted something similar before, but it did not gain too much traction, possibly due to time zones.

It would be cool to see a Lemmy online pen pal/chat pal thread. Tell us about yourself and your hobbies in comments! I’m a person in their 20s who likes world football, theoretical maths and physics, and FOSS stuff. I also like the outdoors and would love to share about outdoor adventures. Feel free to send me a message if you’d like to talk!

I’m a software engineer and as a hobby I organize events and play Super Smash Bros. Melee competitively!

Also I like to travel in Asia and plan to move there probably next year 😁

I keep saying there should be a community for that, but at the same time Lemmy might be too small for that many communities.

Unfortunately I'm not the person you're looking for as a pen pal. Hope you find someone!

A community can be made of very few people. It just takes a desire to keep it going!

I‘m in my early 30s, I used to be an academic doing AI stuff, for now I’m a SAHM which has been a big change. Used to do programming, gaming and embroidery in my free time, liked tinkering with my pc setup (I use arch btw). Now I don’t have much time anymore, seriously staying home with a baby is a million times more stressful than any job I ever had! So now the hobby I make time for and refuse to give up is RPGs, tabletop and PC. Can’t wait for my son to be old enough to play also.
