I think a big chunk of us are gen X. We used BBS forums, Usenet, then slashdot. Then it went mainstream. Move to digg. Move to Reddit. It keeps getting ruined. Now we’re here but I guess at some point we’ll migrate again. Nothing is permanent.
Yeah it’s weird but I get that exact feeling here sometimes. Some shit I get away with here would fly in the 90’s maybe early 00’s but def not on the mainstream socials. I find myself both pleasantly and worriedly surprised.

We are the trailblazing swarm of locusts.
Slashdot represent!
I’ll give you a pity upvote. There you go buddy.
I hang out on FARK btw, we should hang!
I’m glad to find out I’m not the only one. I took pretty much the same path. Can’t forget many thousands of hours spent on IRC.
