This! Why is it everything we build is to communicate with the world? The reality is we live in a certain physical space, we can only see, hear and speak at a certain distance and while technology has enabled a way to overcome that, it does feel like we're overwhelmed by the scale of humans we can communicate with. I want to go back to real, small, private connection. Hence micro.

Even if the whole world isn't built this way, much of it could be, especially groups and interactions.
It’s what you said. The real world. Meet a friend. It’s as private as it gets.
Pick a small friend for true micro experience. :D
Jokes aside, unplug. And it doesn’t have to be that we build things at a world scale. But isn’t it amazing that we can and do build stuff at this scale.
Devs often don’t use tech as much as regular users! They build, and forget the use.
