A little digital experiment for introverts

[u/Accomplished_Shop488]

This is a short, independent social experiment that works through a single anonymous form. Participants are asked to fill out a brief questionnaire about their age, interests, social habits, and how connected or isolated they feel around those interests. Completing the form takes about 5–10 minutes. Based on responses, some adult participants (18+) may be informed that another person with similar interests exists and given the option to contact them. No matching is guaranteed. Many participants will receive no match at all. This is not a dating app, not a service, and not a promise of connection. It is an experiment observing patterns of shared interests and social loneliness. No photos, public profiles, or identity verification are involved. Responses from minors are collected only for data and analysis and are never used for matching. Any interaction after contact sharing is entirely optional and at the participant’s own discretion. Real-life meetings are discouraged. The goal is simple: to study and gently test what happens when people with niche interests are made aware of each other, and to collect honest social data in the process. Participation is voluntary. Honesty matters.

What kind of interests are you talking about and why do you expect to find them among introverts?

oh it's not a stereotype thing. Just, data from here would be pretty valuable. :)
