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

@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.

@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.

[beckermatic@pleroma.arielbecker.com]

@Taweret Fuck the oldternet and the horse it rode in on.

[dannybloomfield@fosstodon.org]

@travisfw @Taweret do you remember a one-page vertical color comic about twitter from ~15 years ago, with two people in a space (bar?), then a few friends come, then more and more concentric circles, until the original two people didn't want to be there anymore? I've been looking for years and can't find it.

[travisfw@fosstodon.org]

@dannybloomfield @Taweret i don't think I ever saw it, but if you dig it up, I hope I catch your post

[independentpen@mas.to]

@Taweret forget dark web; try weird web

@Nazani @Taweret

The modern internet is designed to grab the attention of the majority, i. e., neurotypicals. So, I would partially agree with your premise.

On the other hand there are many neurodiverse victims of these attention engines, who suffer more extremely than the actual targets.
