Just want to say that the admins and mods do a fantastic job in sometimes strange circumstances.
I am decamping from Thailand back to England tomorrow, I've been here 5.5 years, but that's enough for me. No bitterness or complaints from me, just not for me anymore. I will still come to Thailand for holidays, to miss the worst of the UK winters, but to live, no.
I don't envy you all some of the silly questions that will be asked when Thailand opens its borders and ends the amnesty, I'm guessing there'll be a lot of people who treated it as a freebie jolly and will be a tad upset when the rules kick back in. ๐

TLDR : Answer Summary
A longtime expat shares their experience of leaving Thailand after 5.5 years, expressing no regrets but acknowledging the upcoming challenges for those remaining in terms of visa regulations when borders reopen. The discussion includes appreciation for the community moderators and advice for future tourists.
Totally understand your decision. I've lived here for almost 15 years and if it wasn't for my commitment to the 80+ homeless cats and dogs in my care, I'd leave too.
