the fediverse is just a bunch of neurodivergents building their own internet so they don't have to talk to the other internet

@Taweret Like we did with USENET until AOL crashed our party.

@Taweret

What other internet?

[green_bens@mastodon.green]

@Taweret And I am glad to have this little island of sanity.

[falcennial@mastodon.social]

@Taweret it is premium. not only do I love paying to my server administrators when I can, I love paying all the artists and musicians and inventors and such who blow me away

[benjamincox@writing.exchange]

@Taweret Is this a bad thing?

[nske@ravenation.club]

@Taweret this is what the other internet used to be for

[soldusty@beige.party]

@Taweret
I don't build. I just come along to test things .
So far … Evidence points to: Yes!
More testing required to confirm & further testing after that to verify.
Or was it the other way round?

[unusnemo@friendica.rogueproject.org]

@Taweret There is only one Internet, social media does not make up the entirety of it. It is just a small feature. There is so much more. I hope you are not using the internet solely to be on social media.

@Taweret
Also, the normal internet is well-established, has been picked up by corpos and therefore is boring as yesterday's fork.

[dannybloomfield@fosstodon.org]

@Taweret same way we got the first internet

[pabs@masto.es]

@Taweret yes we are

[crystal_fish_caves@mstdn.party]

@Taweret
Yeah? And??

🤭

[travisfw@fosstodon.org]

@dannybloomfield @Taweret right. And this time, we've learned a few things about party crashers.

[apenkop@mstdn.social]

@Taweret At least, it manifests that way.

[jlperuyero@masto.nobigtech.es]

@Taweret
"To the other internet" . They don't even talk between them. But POTUS does the same and I don't see any criticism over him.

[fibrojedi@gamepad.club]

@Taweret I hope you know that's a compliment.

[catriona@tech.lgbt]

@glyph @Taweret @kebokyo i.e.: 'our' not 'their'

[kycm_ancy@fandom.ink]

@Taweret Neocities is also a bit of that

[woo@fosstodon.org]

@Taweret I had no problem with the Internet before fascists took over, which is much the same way I feel about America.

[option8@oldbytes.space]

@Taweret Sounds a lot like the story of the original capital-I Internet.
