    “I am very curious to know about how you found out about lemmy”

    I found out about it on Wikipedia and thought it sounded cool.

    “why you use it”

    I like talking to interesting people.

    “And why did you want to do an AMA.”

    I have a unique experience and perspective I couldn’t share anywhere else.

    “Also how has life been? How are you doing?”

    Hard. I’m at that age where friends and family start dropping like flies and all I can do is watch knowing I’m next. I keep myself busy. I watch films, I like to bake/cook, I cycle a lot, I love to find new websites and I have a tradition of going to the bars every Friday.

    “Has AI been any help?”

    Not really. I used it a few times when it was new not much after that.

    “You seem to have worked as an exotic dancer. How’s retirement like?”

    Only for a little bit. The last job I had before retirement was as a barmaid. Retirement is alright.

      I guess so do I.

      Hard. I’m at that age where friends and family start dropping like flies and all I can do is watch knowing I’m next.

      I don’t want to be insensitive, but are people really dying so fast these days? That sucks.

      Not really. I used it a few times when it was new not much after that.

      I don’t have an ID, but I’ve found that it can be a graceful teacher at times, explaining things in different ways and a lot more patient. Maybe it might be useful to you as well when you have difficulty understanding something.

      Thanks for taking time to answer my questions. You should stick around (if this isn’t a fake account). Lemmy is very nice and accepting of people from all across. Most people believe in FOSS and helping others.
