How do you socialize virtually with the people you care about?

by
I miss going to happy hour, concerts and game night as we're coming up on a full year of sheltering in place. I've had Zoom hangouts with friends, family and coworkers, but it's not quite the same. Not only that, but I'm on Zoom all day for work. Do you use alternative video calling solutions or other ways to visit virtually? What products are you using to just relax and hang out while still remote?

I just went to a virtual event on https://remo.co/ and it was great! You can 'hop over' to any tables to chat with specific groups of people. You can organized tables by subject or just have it be more of a lounge vibe. It's fun to see different groups of people and have one on one conversations or group conversations like you would at any social event. spatial.chat is another great tool that uses spatial audio so you can still hear the din of other conversations, but have a focused conversation with specific person/people in the room.

Messenger is a great help in my social life.

I use Discord to communicate with friends and family. Though it's marketed toward Gamers, It's a really powerful, text, voice, video, and screen sharing application. I really have a hard time using anything else.

Doing the same zoom hangouts definitely gets old quickly. Having a structured activity that is out of the ordinary really helps shake things up! https://evenifitkillsme.com - virtual murder mysteries was awesome at making me feel like I was with friends in person.
