I would love to organize independent redditor gatherings in every bigger city. Everyone everywhere all at once. I just need to know whether or not you would take part in it.

  1. Would you enjoy a gathering in your (Swiss) city? Then I’m going to set things in motion for a unique opportunity to meet fellow redditors in real life.

  2. Make the gathering in a public place, which features a Biergarten to overlook the scenery. You’ll find me there as an incognito and silent Redditor 😉

  3. It is a honorable attempt, but will fail. In Switzerland, your Reddit membership hast the same public status as your salary.

    On the other hand, a great opener to strike a conversation with a unknown girl is: “What are your three top subreddits?”

  4. Lol. Most people here say they suffer from some acronym or “introvert” condition so that they can barely leave their room.

  5. This is why nobody has friends lol, why is everyone being so negative to OP? He’s just trying to be nice lol. I bet most of you drown in shitty beer on a Friday night at some crappy bar, yea don’t @ me! Summer is coming stop being hermits! I have social anxiety but I make an effort to meet interesting individuals who like to eat or go for a hike, at least Zürich has some outgoing people :/

  6. Everyone is so negative and says no.
    Ill guess i throw in a maybe, it really depends on the location and date.

  7. Yes, I already met some peoples from Reddit and it was always cool sharing a beer and talking. The beergarten idea is exactly the kind of stuff we did.

    But they were French or English speaking foreigners, and according to the answers here that makes a huge difference. Maybe that’s why Geneva is « France already » 🤷🏻‍♂️

  8. Go for it OP. Don’t mind the naysayers. Social interaction isn’t a strong point on this subreddit and those with such qualms wouldn’t be good company anyway.

  9. I don’t mind if it’s in Zürich, Aarau, Bern, Luzern or wherever, it’s all just nearly 1h by train. So why not ?
    It could be the one and never again.. or hey it was cool, let’s do it next month again !

  10. I would have no problem if it isn’t in my city (Basel). Not that i have something against Basel I just feel more comfortable in cities where I know nobody.

  11. That’s a good idea. Problem is that almost everyone wants it to happen at around 1h drive/train from home 🤭 why not having 2 gathering ? Let’s say one in zurich, one in Lausanne. Both large city and very accessible.

  12. Maybe. I think gatherings based on subreddits might work better. I’m not sure someone from r/EpicSeven or r/Transformers would necessarily get along with someone from r/OneOrangeBrainCell.

  13. Depends, is there food/can we bring food? What kinda gathering is it? What’re the topics/activities?

    I mean I’d probably be too busy or too awkward depending on the day to be there but in a theoretical day where I am free then it’d depend on what kinda gathering is it.

  14. i don’t think so. maybe on subreddits that share a hobby with me. not a subreddit with people from the country i live in lol. most redditors from this sub are far too left for me anyways.
