1⃣ Nowadays @iDubTG is not very active. In a previous response you mentioned that you stepped away from the project to focus more on your private life. Have you lost some of the passion and curiosity you used to have for Telegram? And would you ever consider coming back to posting in the future?

This is a great question that I felt like I didn't address properly on my channel, so I'm going to address it here. As you may notice from some of my answers, I'm basically like a literal grandpa when it comes to Telegram now. I still keep in contact with some of my friends in the community on this app, even them showing me new features, but I'm still so out of touch now. I haven't been looking at the community as a whole for nearly 2 years; I'm entirely out of my depth in everything Telegram now. I genuinely couldn't tell you anything new.

I can see how much the app has improved; I always get whiplash every time I open Telegram Beta Chat, seeing how much has changed and how the chat I once spoke in every day has adapted to it's new features. I wouldn't really call myself an "OG" at all though; even though I was here since 2020-2021, some have been here even longer.

Why did I disappear? I don't exactly know. Maybe I got bored, but I simply just gradually stopped interacting with the community as much, each day interacting less until I basically didn't anymore. Maybe it's that, and a combination of my final exams at the place I was studying and a big switch in my life, but I'm still not entirely sure. I guess I just lost the great passion and interest I had in this app, and through no fault of Telegram did this happen. I was extremely curious to find new features and bugs in this app, but I simply just don't feel like that anymore, most likely because I'm an adult now, and I've "grown out of it" or "grown up".

It's kind of sad, in a way. I still get nostalgia from the old times in Telegram, the times I had in the community, the friends I had here, and also the projects and just overall cool creative ideas that came out of my young imaginative mind. It's time from a bygone era of my life, though.

Do I see myself coming back? Most likely not, but you never know. It's not like I'm entirely against me coming back, but the only way I'd return is if my passion and curiosity for this app comes back, for whatever reason. Maybe some insane future event will happen that brings me back here; I literally cant say. I genuinely have no earthly idea.
