catsalad:

i greatly admire the fact that you have enough demographic knowledge of the fediverse to know that there is a lot of gen x who joined in 2022 and that you then purposefully created the best funny and harmless ragebait i've seen in a long time

@antdude ...that... is a lot more coincidental than you might want to believe.

But because I have very few things with which to annoy you, I will say it anyway:

E = mcยฒ is a simplified form of Eยฒ = (pc)ยฒ + (mcยฒ)ยฒ

Which looks like cยฒ = aยฒ + bยฒ.

Which is further proof that physicists are having salacious affairs with right triangles.

Energyยฒ = momentumยฒ + massยฒ.

Bow chicka wow wow.

I think it was around 2016-17 or so, I got on a small server run by a person I was familiar with. Found the whole thing confusing. Didn't know how to set things up to suit me, didn't know how anything worked. I gave up on it, most of the feed was in Japanese. Came back on a different, large server the day Elon bought Twitter and this time had no problems at all. ๐Ÿคท

So before covid is the Mastodon version of the dark ages?

I did technically join back then, but at that time the web interface didn't filter out repeated boosts from multiple people I followed. So my feed was extremely repetitive and annoying, which led to me not coming here very often

When Twitter went to shit, I was happy to see that had been changed over here! So I hopped on the 'don and never looked back

From what I remember, it was just before Twitter shat itself to death (around early 2022 or late 2021), as I was getting into open-source and found that Fedi/Masto was libre. Even though it is still an imperfect solution (as it's ultimately still social media), it was really cozy to see how much less chaotic it was compared to Twitter at the time. โ€‹:thinknyan:โ€‹

joined pre COVID for the same disgruntledness with Facebook, but bailed. Wasn't sure what it held for me not knowing anyone else on it. Came back to it with a renewed interest 2 yrs ago (?) in a fucking rage about Facebook again. That said.... I did clear and. Delete my 10-12 years of info, but had to start again just to be able to video chat with my Dad who is 82. And IRL, still, nobody I know is here on the fedi.

Oh, we have sooooo many cat species in the future, thanks to the [REDACTED]. And the Hybrids, of course, or catgirls as some call them. But I have questions... :breadthink:
