Neurodivergent, certainly. But I also have a sneaking suspicion that a large majority of us are millenials. We’ve gone through this repeatedly in the internet age, changing chat or social platforms. We’re the early adopters and eventually everybody on earth comes to crush it to death and then we rebuild somewhere else.
And for us Gen-X/Gen-Y folks, all the Fediverse needed to do was to say “it’ll be just like the Internet in the 1990s” and we were like “HELL YEAH SIGN ME UP”
Gives me BBS era / Usenet vibes, yesss
Yes! The millenials too though. We’re as nostalgic (or maybe even more nostalgic) for the 90s internet because it was our entire childhoods.
(Millennial is gen Y 😜)
Oh, yeah. I never see it used and it didn’t even register. 🤦
you say that but i just saw this post about the Formulars for different kinds of rizz in my time line
I wish this would not have made sense to me, but I think I get what they are trying to say. Enough Internet for today, it makes me feel weird
No. It’s not enough Internet.
It means your one with the Internet.
I for one however wish they had included some some weighted calculations.
I already told you I’m a millennial, so you already know I am too old to understand this shit. 😂
Yep! I remember message boards and the glory of bb code, when DMs were called PMs and everyone knew each other’s name.
Generation has nothing to do with it. Tech literary does.
nothing? idk about that
The Fediverse really seems like the late 90’s/early 00’s internet, before the influx of corporate silo media. So far folks here are more or less ok, and the lack of deliberate ragebait pushing is refreshing.
the fediverse is the internet in its most internet state
Yes - it all comes crashing down if DNS fails
Isn’t that why/how the Internet was created?
Yeah, and then the corpos created platforms to bring the non-neurodivergent people to the internet.
More power to e’m. There’s room for both, mostly… I think.
…HEY,somebody get 'em! They’re thinking! Stop them!
And I feel good for it. Thanks to all the folks out there who are making it happen
i do like it here :3
was this not the intended use?
Eh, there are non neuro divergents as well, there are dozens of us, I tell ya!
On the fediverse, we NDs are the dominant neurotypes, so technically, NTs are the neurodivergent ones here. Either way, you are now ND. There is no escape.
Dozens!
Ever since I discovered this side of the internet, I love it and I’ll never leave it.
if all there was is subscription slop. i’d choose off.
Its beautiful
Or because we got shadow banned for speaking the truth
Yes? And?
Same can be said for X and trumps shithole boards
How so?
They are just as much a microcosm of societal misfit ideologies as this place, thats how
Reminder that Trump won majority vote
He had musk and his doges steal it for him. Not gonna convince me otherwise
