>If no new interests stick to you and you don't really enjoy your old interests, though, maybe you're depressed?
I probably worded my first post badly: I'm still enamoured with my current interests, they're just completely tangential to classical otakudom and seem to have the most receptive forums entirely IRL.
>My advice for social media is to get out of the bluecheck land.
I'm already not (my first post was really poorly worded), my 'circle' of contacts is entirely train and rc wota, and some musicians. I ended up severely culling my following a year back when english memes thrice removed and jpeg'd to all hell were appearing on my feed, like stools from one of the horses of the apocalypse (probaby the reason why I fell out of most otaku culture in general). I ended up closing my english account too soon after since most of the time it was only expat drivel or nobody I could have a beer with in person.

>The worst I feel is that I've nearly completely fallen out of Lego.
I feel the same. All my lego collection does now is take up space, I'm in the process of sorting all the parts so I can donate it to a kid who'll make full use of them and maybe get the same joy I did way back when. Maybe even turn into another akiyuky.

I think the last reason I ended up like this is because most of these people have slow, tiny, almost entirely disconnected internet presences, often hosted on their own pages. There's something really comfy in that, that makes returning to 7+ tweet per day feel obnoxious by comparison.

I think its both as nostalgia over family values by the aging popuation trickles down onto a new working class increasing unable or unwilling to marry.
