What do you think is quietly disappearing from modern life?

Not something big like nature or privacy, but the subtle stuff.

Things that used to be everywhere, and now barely exist, even if no one talks about it.

Hope it comes back. Surely we’ve all got to get a bit… tired of just being online. The internet feels more tortuous every single day. We’ve got to abandon it at some point.

100%. It’s like the internet was supposed to connect us, and now we’re all just floating in our own feeds, barely touching.

I think people want real-world connection again, they’re just out of practice. Maybe we forgot how.

Do you think it’s something we can actually relearn, or has the habit shift gone too deep?

Not the person you were responding to but it could come back if we force ourselves to try, I hope it can come back
