Why did it have to end?

Yes I know why, something to do with the industry. But still. Its a tragedy.

When I first heard, I replayed the phrase in my mind. Drivetribe is ending. It seemed so improbable that such a thing could happen. It has been a big part of my life and the only social media site that I am allowed on. It is truly devastating. I am grateful the drivetribe youtube channel is still online but it will not be the same. It will never be the same. Although I barely ever post, I enjoy other peoples posts and articles. I really enjoy Josh PurplePetrols videos on drivetribe. There is so many people that I look forward to, only because of the posting they do. Whether it is a simple quick post or a full fledged article, I look forward to them all. Losing it will leave a hole the size of a crater in my life. It really was nice to have a few small posts to look forward to every day. I feel like a convict waiting for his trail at the end of the month. Yes I know the other Drivetribe channels on other social media sites will still operate, and discord servers and reddit lounges are being set up, and people are jumpicg ship to different websites to continue this great place. But, me being quite young, I am prevented from joining such things. There is Opposite Lock, but thats not the same. Drivetribe has been such a big part of my life and I love it. Unlike other social medial sites, you are person here, not just a random comment or post. Best of all, is that it is about cars, the one thing that we all love. But the bigger forces in the world care only about money, and drivetribe is not making much. So it has been forced to stop. But I suppose all great things in this world must come to an end. It has been great to meet all you wonderful people. A thank you to Sam Barker, MK1 Clio, Micah_, seat arosa connoisseur, The Flying Car, Priyesh Ray Chaudhuri, JW, Tim Mazurek, Thomas Edwards, Mr. Hawk, Lucas Anderson, and Salman Ather, for following me even though I barely post. And with that, I say goodbye.

Sincerely, Armith Vala.

  • Finally a person just like me on dt, it feels like no one would feel the same as me in this situation.
