This thread is an interesting "filter bubble" experience. Here, a city in central europe, nobody I know wears one anymore, even those who were always extra-careful on the cautious side. Basically nobody in stores wears one nor in public transport. Yeah, on occasion you find 1-2 exceptions that confirm the rule.

Probably, this thread is largely visited by those who still do, and ignored by those who don't.

Iโ€™ve noticed this a lot with both lemmy and Reddit. You have to go into any thread thinking about the kind of people that post is going to attract because it often times does not reflect the rest of the world
