I hear you. I saw three internet buddies go to the unknown land, two of them I knew for almost twenty years, plenty of emails traded, and old-fashioned correspondence (=email) chess: two or three moves a week, matches lasting months and months.... One was a doctor from Canada who lived in and fought at the Covid front in New York. A very humourous man, and a diabolically capable chess player. Miss him.

The beast leaves traces, even if one does not get directly bitten oneself.
