not sure if this is your first account, so im not sure how far into hell imgflip had devended when u joined. i feel this very way. i joined in the peak of imgflip, 2020-2022. all it was back then for me was standing up to trolls and making new friends. but all good things must come to an end. These days, imgflip feels as if its lost its life. Where i used to see bustling streams, now i see emptiness. I saw the rise and fall of good streams. Going on imgflip used to be the highlight of my day, something that excited me. now its just the daily routine.
its not all gloom though. i have friends i love to chat with. but its not the same as it used to be. and i keep pretending its the same as even just 2 years ago, but it really isnt. the places i used to frequent. and yet i stay. why? because i made a promise. a promise to all my former friends to still be here if they decide to come back. they dont, though. I know one day I'll leave this site. i will stick with my decision to the bitter end. its not the same as it was. people changed. those i looked up to are gone. so. why cant we go back to the old days? because… that time has passed.
idk if you'll read this, it just felt nice to put my thoughts out there.
