I remember just a few months ago bars and clubs being super packed and now there’s hardly anybody at them. What’s going on?

Edit: I’m in the Los Angeles area

    …Might help to mention what hemisphere you’re in, or continent you’re on? Or country? Or city?

    The reason for your local change in nightlife could be anything from a wide, wide range of reasons, almost all of which depend heavily on where you are.

    Let’s not be like the uncouth Defaultist Americans that assume everybody in the world lives where they do. Let’s be better, and let’s provide a location when it’s key info.

        Americans legit think the internet ends at their borders. Even relatively modern places like Bluesky are so infuriating for not understanding how internet works.

          Many, many years ago, Pizza Hut announced ordering pizza online if one of their restaurants is within a certain range. We checked, we were in range, and ordered our pizzas.

          Guess what? No pizza. We sent a mail, and we got a totally confused answer. Yes, that offer was for US based orders only (no mentioning of this on the web site, we had checked!). How the heck could we have internet outside the US? Our answer, that the web was actually developed in Europe confused him even more.

          We got the offer that they would send us the order free of charge once they expanded the service to our place. So far, no pizza, even though they offer this service for a few years now…
