To the two (technically 3 since An is on everyone's friends list) people that will see this. Hey there. I haven't exactly been very active on this site in awhile, and there's a good reason for that. At least good enough, in my opinion. That reason is because I still haven't figured out what to do on here yet aside from looking at layouts and whatnot. I'm not at all well-versed in coding, so making layouts is out of the question. Hell, I barely know how to get the music on my profile to work (as I'm typing this, the song currently on there is one that I swapped out from the song that originally came with this layout). The other reason is because, well, I haven't really found anyone to talk to on here besides 1 person. I wasn't on MySpace back in it's hayday, but from what I've heard and seen from watching my mom talk to her sister on there, messaging people is one of the main reasons people got on MySpace in the first place. I also feel as though this site isn't as popular as it should be, but that's not anyone's fault. Spacehey is still in it's infancy. It'll take some time for it to really grow in popularity. Anyway, I'm starting to ramble on now. I just wanted to say hi to anyone who might see this and feel free to message me if you want to be friends.
Peace,
Raven

It's been like that with me too. I've been off for about a year, and am back now because I have a really unhealthy obsession with the mid-2000's again. This time I'm gonna try and make it work here.
With the original MySpace they had a search option where you could search by country, gender, age, really narrow it down. Even Facebook today doesn't have anything like it. But because you had a good search option and it was good at finding active people, you could pick up a circle of rando friends in no time and gel with them very quickly because the culture was different too.
It looks like you are now inactive yourself. Hopefully you come back!

Hiiii!
Nah, I totally know what you mean. I'm still trying to figure out what to do here besides existing, lol. Editing my layout/making tweaks here and there can only be fun for so long. That's interesting you say that...I wasn't on MySpace in its peak era either. I also watched my mom browse MySpace back in the day, I just sat there and admired her profile as she edited it every other week. She had it all...the moving background, glitter gifs, music, and so much more!
What I decided to do was start a blog. Since I like to ramble about random things (to myself), I figured I type it out and just "publish" it for all to see. I'm already on my 2nd blog, with 5 posts or so. I'm no writer, so it's very far from perfect... but it's something to me. Anyways, maybe you should start a blog about a certain subject and talk about it/update it every so often! Your interests, dislikes, your long list of movies + music + TV (I'd definitely check it out!), etc...you seem like an interesting person, so I'm sure you'd come up with some great posts!
I can't wait to see what you come up with...if you do, haha. If not, that's cool. I'll still be excited to see what new song you have on your profile next. <- I'm always changing mine too, lol.
Byeeeee, Raven :)

I get you bro.
Outside of profile surfing and making silly comments on blog posts I struggle to find anything really engaging tbh. Lots of social media are better at allowing for effective and inventive means of communicating with people and incentivizing and providing content.
That being said, I find spacehey appealing in its own way. It allows me to cultivate friend groups with people I dont know and my ability to express my interests is only as limited as my knowledge of CSS and HTML coding. The struggle in this scenario is how much you want to invest yourself on here and how often you have to put your best foot forward since the site doesn't have an algorith to throw preffered peoples and content at you (which ive foubd carries its own pros and cons)
TL;Dr You should try actively engaging people instead of waiting for them to come to you so that you can cultivate a friend group that you want to share content with.
