I noticed with IRC, if I was in the chat that was it for my evening - I would not be doing anything else like browsing, watching videos or TV, or playing games. I'd be watching and waiting for every message that rolled in.
YES TO ALL OF THIS. How do people keep up??? And there’s no real way to even go back and read only engage with older comments/topics. It all just moves forward like an endless stream of consciousness. Like a massive group text on steroids.
