Arguably this is a "first place" since I almost always access it while at home.

Do you discuss only with family members on Lemmy?

According to the article, this is a Virtual Third Place. IMHO it's not the same as a physical place. I've lived in places where I had third places, and now I live in a place where I don't, and the difference is stark.
