It really depends on what makes you feel good at that moment 🎉 Some people love the rush of partying with friends, some prefer a quieter vibe with family, and some need to spend time alone with themselves to reflect. There's no right answer - it's really personal: what matters is that you're in a space where you feel authentic and happy, not somewhere you feel obligated to be.
The question is: what do you miss the most when December 31st rolls around?
To me, it's not really a matter of better or worse, but what actually recharges you. If you're surrounded by people all year, spending that night alone might be exactly what you need to reset. But if you spend your days in isolation, company becomes necessary. The common mistake is feeling obligated by what "should" be fun on New Year's Eve, when you could just listen to yourself instead.
A practical trick that works well: whatever you choose, figure out beforehand what you're actually going to do. If you're alone, don't wait until the 31st to decide - maybe download something you want to watch, grab some good food, plan whether you want to take a walk at midnight. If you're with others, same thing - you don't end up doing the usual forced ritual where you're just chatting with no real direction. Even just having some light activity (cooking together, board game, movie) makes a huge difference between a night you remember and one you just get through.

I recharge being alone, but this year I'll probably be with friends. I need to plan things out well, can't just wing it.
