Hi! I got into this game over the pandemic, and I really enjoy it! It's simultaneously relaxing and strategic. Online I mostly play on Mahjong Soul, because it's easier introduce friends to a client which is natively in English and lets you take 5 minute turns. I've also had the chance to play in person a few times, but teaching people can be hard.
I've also gotten to play in a few tournaments. Anyone interested in joining a charity tournament should check out the Extra Life Open on Nov 4-5
