Am a lil optimist folk that likes computers :3 Banner by David Revoy (Check his stuff!)

📌 The best internet hobby in current times is to be an archivist (For cencorship reasons)You should archive media NOW!!!

Alright:

  • I speak in arguments, don't act like a troll and i'll consider chatting.

  • Instance wars are always stupid.

  • Fediverse show his interest if you get a bit out of your comfort zone. Stop circlejerking.

  • Credit artists, that way everyone wins.

  • Don't be chronically online please.

  • What's your favourite music video?

    Jump

  • Hell yeah, an Akatsuki Records enjoyer!

  • What indieweb sites you like?

    Jump

  • Waow, quite a collection you got here. I don't really have a website where i maintain such list, so i will say some from my selection:

    • nadeko.net This person hosts a lot of various services and knows his stuff while keeping it otaku enough.
    • Frutiger aero archive I wouldn't say i'm too much of a nostalgic person, but the owner is incredibly nice and the archive quality and dedication is golden.
    • tane.us (does it counts?) the website speaks for itself.
    • tengu.space this person has good tastes and a nice website selection.

    Also, some others: pixelde.su - lavenderfield - dinpixels.neocities.org

    Maybe i'll add some later.

  • Couldn't have said it better

  • Something to help lead people to the Fediverse

  • Well, pleroma is kind of like a blend between 2010 imageboards and mastodon, it's kinda small and nice depending on which instance you are. Its used by a lot of personal website thanks to its low weight, and is popular among small independant web creators. You'll rarely see instance with more than 100 users. Biggest one i've found is https://udongein.xyz/ .

    Misskey is more or less the same thing, but mainly focused on a japanese audience from what i've seen, with a flashy DUI and a large focus on user customisation with profile picture stickers, statuses, colored fonts, badges, and custom emojis. Biggest misskey instance i've found is misskey.io .

    Both are fun, but they are more focused on communities/sharing than politics/news/real world (except misskey on some cases for... japanese reasons). Their smallness also tend to favor circlejerking behavior, but i guess that's an inner principle of the world wide web. They are worth the try.

  • Making comics is a better way to archive the events from the age of cyberlegends than big old bricks of text that no one except nerds will have the courage to read, in my opinion.

    I hope someone will have the strengh to archive tales from the fediverse in this way for the future cybernauts. But theses arts of making comics from the world wide web events seem to have been lost to time unfortunately.

  • What happened to internet culture?

    Jump

  • @TwirlyTaco@aus.social Good question.

    Yes, I believe that the real world is too much tied to the use of internet for everything. Earlier in the millenia, you wouldn't use the web as much as today. A few dozens websites and you were "done with the internet for today". Now, it's almost the norm to see people being online for more than 3 hours a day.

    The abundance of content and the consequent rush for fame on social media enhanced the doom scrolling phenomenon. Social media, getting money from selling advertisments, are becoming giant and normalized among youth. And the cycle continues.

    Also, with social media, people started putting their life online, until it became the norm. Anonymity became less accepted, until it was portrayed as an "incel thing" and confined to the edges of the web. (Although, i think meeting new people from all horizons online is more beneficial to one's culture than chatting with you friends living 5km away.)

    Yeah, I think the proper way to use internet is to use it with a goal in mind. "Why do I want to get online today? Do I want to learn new things, meet new people, have a fruitful debate with someone, or am I simply doing it because I'm bored and wants to entertain myself?"

    It should just be a tool. A tool with endless potential, to use responsibly.

  • Ah, neocities, had a site there for some time, it's very good. It truely revives the feeling of "surfing on the web" that geocities gave with thoses 88x31 buttons, thoses flashy gifs and thoses bright colors everywhere.

    It was at around 600000 websites not long ago and got beyond 1 million recently, seems like it's blowing up in popularity (I hope for the better).

  • What happened to internet culture?

    Jump

  • With the evergrowing flow of users, normality became the expectation. The internet bar club disappeard to become real life 2.0, and in real life, you are supposed to use money, and inner jokes don't work. We went from "you shouldn't post personal information to the internet" to "If you don't put your real life profile on the internet, you are a weirdo who tries to escape real life". The new world has been claimed by the old.

    Though, in an easier way than in real life, you can become a cyberhermit. Leave social media, and even though there are a lot less people out of here, if you find active forums or chatrooms, you'll find some everlasting internet culture.

    It was never really gone, just got hidden by money and large scale hypersocializers.

    Pleroma is a fediverse service where there are way less people than here, but it is more "childish" (make me think of very early 2ch-4chan). You have also misskey, though they mostly speak japanese there. For anon culture, you have still IRC, and some little open chatrooms through the fediweb. Though it's hard to find similar places to early 4ch that aren't nazi paradises.

    Good luck out there!

  • Oh, thank you for the info, but when i said that I am uncomfortable with that pronoun, i said it in the sense "I'm not used to this pronoun and don't know how to use it properly".

    If I understood well, it can be used like he-his, she-her, they-theirs? I gotta use gender neutral pronouns more often. Sounds better than "it-its"

  • Oh, my bad, thank you sir

  • we need more users

    Jump

  • Yeah, i feel the same, for a lot of reasons i've noticed around here

    • a lot of niche subs usually were created turing the apicalipse 3 years ago, but were quickly deserted, so anyone curious about thoses interests right now on lemmy would just find old communities where no one has spoken for years, and get back to reddit out of boredom.

    • the few staying for the mainstream communities where there is still some activity are continuously hit by the same topics (lemmy is small and divided enough nowadays to act like echochambers unfortunately) and either participate, or feel excluded and leave.

    • Echochambers, stereotypes, and hatred contribute to make lemmy more small and divided.

    The cycle continue, and that's how you kill a defederated service. Honestly, i see more people arguing about communities or users from lemmy itself than people simply debating or talking about things from their interests. That makes me a bit sad.

  • Assuming maybe wrongfully that they are a man, (i'm uncomfortable with the use of they/them to designate a singular person, english isn't my first language), yeah, I'm seriously impressed by his patience and kindness.

    I felt so ashamed to give small answers to him that one time he corrected me with a very understandable and precise paragraph, that I actually became motivated to read a bit of theory.

    That's what i call a good influencer.
