I think plenty of people will just wear masks in public in general going forward. There's really barely any downside. If anything, hiding my face in public & making me less approachable is worth it without the health benefits!
- potta_coffee 6y agoThat's great for you. Other people have a problem with being forced to do something that's not great for them.
- whateveracct 6y agoMy hope is that a plurality of people do masks permanently so it's socially acceptable and people who don't wear them have to see mask usage everywhere for a little bit of social pressure.
- neither_color 6y agoDownsides: Humidity Staleness after a few hours Face ID is now useless Fogs up glasses Having to speak louder Having to repeat things for people who cant read lips Increased difficulty reading facial cues Having a harder time remembering people you met while they were wearing a mask(not people you already knew last year) Imprint + tan lines on your face There's no substitute for taking a deep breath of fresh air outside. These are all downsides Ive experienced and Ive tried a variety of masks including fitted premium ones(under armor sportsmask w/face measurements taken, Tommie Copper, etc). I follow the law, I wear a mask every day to prevent spreading this thing, but dont try to make this a permanent thing and dont say "just wear a mask it's nothing"
