I don't even feel very comfortable doing it since I don't know how to speak English, and I require the use of a translator to understand what they say.

I used anonymous forums in Spanish mostly. They all closed, I never quite got used to these places, but whether out of nostalgia or habit I'm still here.

Do yourself a favor and go watch TV series and read books, in English. I remember back in the days my English used to suck. I didn't know what simple and common words and expressions like "thought" and "though" meant, when I decided to read a light novel in English. It wasn't *very* difficult for me because I had learned English for years at a language school, but then again, I didn't know what "though" meant.

Since then, I've read maybe 60 books in English. I still feel like a shitty ESL, especially after I had to do business with Americans and read their immaculate e-mails, but maybe I'm just not noticing how much I've improved after reading that Classroom of The Elite volume 1 as a 15yo.

Anyways, there are some theories in linguistics that say that the only way you can improve your language skills is to do expose yourself to the language. Find something you think you'll like and watch it or reading it. The worst that can happen is you'll have some fun :).

hispachan died because of the censorship of its moderators, nido.org died the day its administrator committed suicide, voxed died because its administrator got bored of the page

I really, really loved the time I spent on 8 before it got hammered down because of the New Zealand dude, I legitimately felt like I had no place on the internet the day it closed.
I still come here from time to time, and it took me a long while to find the new remnants from 8 after it died down from the webring in 2021, but unfortunately it's not the same without the post activity. The essence is there, but I miss when it had more post activity because it's not very often that I find something that I can opiniate on, and more posting just means statistically more likely that this happens.
The remnants also has something called hisparefugio, which I don't know if it's related to where you came from or what you're looking for, but at least it's something, even if the posting speed is as slow as here is nowadays.

Hispachan was so dead that 8 out of 10 threads were mine. It was my first social network, and the only one where I knew how to handle myself.
Spending so much time here has made me stop giving importance to other people's opinions, laugh at myself, and be honest. But I think what I like most is to impose my thoughts and way of thinking, so that even in anonymity certain ways of thinking of mine are followed.
