I feel weirdly subversive surfing the fediverse. Like I'm on the dark web or some shit, lol. I mean I know it's different.

But it also kind of feels like Bluesky is the user-friendly AOL version of fediverse social networking (I think? They're decentralized, aren't they? But... Yeah.)

Also also it's weird to me that so many people who were all about BBS waaaaaay back in the day are like "Nah, I'm done trying new Internet things" and have just camped out on Facebook. Facebook suuuuuuuuuuuuucks. It's sucked for sooooo loooooooooong.

So I'm here and I'm not even that tech savvy. I just have tech savvy friends who are kind enough to help me figure shit out. Who were also once BBSers.

Also tangentially connected there's a new clone of old school Geocities called Neocities? So my Internet life has officially come full circle (or will have, if I ultimately create a gaudy website on the platform. Which, let's be real, I'm probably gonna do.)
