People are definitely staying home more. I live in what was once a bustling night life district. It is far less bustling now.
I also feel people are sticking more to their core friends and family groups, and venturing out to meet new people less. But that’s more of a personal feeling than something I have quantitatively observed.
- jokethrowaway 5y agoAre there still restrictions where you live? I didn't go anywhere while masks were still required. It's annoying and, sure, I'm sorry for your small business (a nearby business wrote a sign "come and eat here or we'll starve") but I won't bother covering my face just to buy something I can order online, helping my friend Jeff Bezos in the process. Same with holidays, I'm not coming to your country to relax if I have to wear a mask. Now that masks are not required in my country I go out as much as I did before.
- jdavis703 5y agoYeah masks are still technically required, but if they’re anything like indoor dining, people are lax about wearing them once inside (I haven’t been to any since the pandemic, so I could be wrong).
- RNCTX 5y agoDepends. I live in north Dallas. Masks were always just a guideline here, no matter how many "required" signs there were, anywhere from 25% to 50% of the clientele on any given day would just ignore them. We now are going the other direction, state buildings are prohibited from requiring masks and private businesses do so at their peril because people are generally against them.
