Whats noise to me might be music to someone else. But after decades of being
on most Othernets it all just becomes to me the same things over and over.
Othernets have almost the exact same participants. The novelty is just not
there anymore for me, nothing making most of them different from Fidonet.

I can even take a guess when the next dupe-dump will happen or when some troll
will gaslight something stupid, or when an Othernet ZC will unfortunately go
from having a fun experimental net to having a net that needs a clearly
defined set of policy as its noisiest participants are not mature enough to
hit the Next key.

I don't need or define topics when I talk with friends. We talk about anything
and everything and whatever. "Topics" never come up.
