So social distancing is our reality these days, and while there are things about it that super suck — it’s not all bad news. We’ve all got plenty of time on our hands, and there are too many awesome activities in the world to be bored!
Thanks to apps like Facebook Live, Zoom and Duo, there are ways to have fun with your friends and loved ones from the safety of your own home! Thank god for technology, amiright?!
First, let’s talk tech. Here are your easiest, most user-friendly options for video calls:
Facebook Messenger
Zoom
Instagram live
Google Hangouts
Skype
Facetime
Duo
And there’s always the OG: texting. Any of the above can be used to have a virtual gathering! And if you want to make these live streams a little more interactive and fun, get SDKs (check https://www.agora.io/en/products/interactive-live-streaming/ for more info) that can help make your real-time exchanges much more creative. If your internet is getting in the way of socializing online with your friends then you might find it beneficial to seek a new provider who can help your online needs. You potentially might look at wifi packages similar to xfinity internet packages as a possible example or you could find a local provider if preferable!
Here are some ideas for ways to have social distancing fun times!
Have other ideas? Leave ’em in the comments! ‘Cuz just because we’re quarantined doesn’t mean we can’t have fun. Together but separate!
Follow harm.less on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook for conscious, cruelty-free food, travel, fashion, and above all: FUN. 🠦„ (Use the hashtag #harmlesswithhannah for the chance to be featured!)
