Besides it simply being different and other details others might bring up, it can also just be cheaper and simpler depending on your situations. No technical issues to sort through (“sorry my internet’s acting up/i think the servers are down”/etc.) and no need for hardware at all to simply communicate and do whatever in the same space.
other than the hardware needed to get to the hangout spot/restaurant/etc, the added cost of getting there/buying whatever to participate in the hanging out
seems more like an article funded by a restaurant association or something
