Has anyone heard from just_kitten or Duenan lately? Hope they're doing well

I have seen a few posts from just_kitten recently at the other place.

I got a dm from Duenan a while ago. He said he was doing well so I left it at that.

Duenan left after TinyBreak did iirc. They still post on the other place regularly. Same with Baku.

;-;

Edit: We seem to have lost a lot of people since this started, leaving a core group of regulars.

There would be talk of cliques on the other place DT so could there be the perception of that issue here? I really think we are welcoming to everybody though, I just talk to everyone (nobody escapes me 😈).

There’s probably more activity in the other place but I haven’t gone back because I don’t recognise many people there and may no longer fit.

As well as the whole ‘owner emulating you know who’ thing.

I'm out of the loop, why did they leave?

I did notice that just_kitten was gone, I haven’t heard from Duenan either
