       What year did you get on the internet? Please pass around for good n. (Perhaps I could have picked the intervals better.)

       @ra I got on the internet before I knew it was the internet - I thought I was calling a BBS with a really large chatroom.Turned out it was an IRC frontend. :blobcatgooglyshrug:​

       @ra ha! Looking at the current results, I suspect you have some selection bias toward people who remember what the early Internet was like and that’s what drew them to Mastodon.

       @smitty @ra I think there would be less confusion about Mastodon if more people remembered Usenet.(and wouldn't it be good if there was a Mastodon client that could handle multiple Mastodon server logins as easily as a Usenet client could handle multiple newsgroups...)

       @Daveosaurus @smitty @ra on Android there's Subway Tooter which can handle multiple fedi servers without an issue and has the added bonus of having a UI that puts function over form.
