Is it just me or did the network definitely feel different in 2021-2022 before twitter became x? I swear it was so much more underground and much more of a niche

@theorytoe before this side wasn't even called dark feddy it was just the unnamed other side of the fediverse, i was around when the term was coined *lmao*

@nyanide I mean I figure there was some sort of sizeable amount of people who fled twitter in favor of fedi around the time musk bought it upAnd whenever you get a larger sample size, any particular group starts standing out more

@jexams I mean if you remember at the time there wasn't really any popular alternatives for twitter that were well established.. except for competitor social medias and mastodon..and then some people went to mastodon and cluttered up the twkn.. but most didn't stay for longer than a few months

@nyanide Yeah in some ways, mastodon was the closest twitter alternative at the time but by virtue of being decentralized, it was also different in a lot of key ways so I’m not surprised a lot of people didn’t stayI remember when I first heard of fedi however many years ago I naively thought “man it’d be nice if this could become the new thing” but after using it on and off I realized it just isn’t a realistic goal. The two are just too different in some key ways. At best it’ll be where smaller communities can build a thing and tbh that isn’t such a bad thing.

@nyanide the only change is that people have been leaving ever since the burst of new users in early 2021. this includes oldfags who couldn't handle poa.st becoming as big as it is, new instance operators getting fed up with pleroma, and newfags who got bored and left.

@nyanide @Inginsub the vibe was definitely different, I feel like it was "more fun", probably because there were a lot of new users that weren't humorlessly political. Most of dark fedi still federated with one another which can't be said now. Even tranny instances still federated with "dark fedi" and the shit-flinging was entertaining for it. A lot less gay janny shit going on back then.

@nyanide @jexams @bot twitter purged them out or made a major attempt to, and also loosened the rules on shitposting/rw posting that many of the "based" accounts went back to Twitter in an attempt at not solely preaching to the choir.Many of them went back to Twitter because there's a chance that you can sway the normiesphere to some degree (this was highly effective for a while between 2014-17).

@nyanide @theorytoe i mean i feel "dark fedi" has been a thing since before covid, maybe not coined, but there was definitely two sides of fedi and lots of blocking and siloing. But ya the network definitely has changed.

@nyanide @Inginsub It was bound to be short-lived. I hope a p2p type federation could bring back some semblance of it but there's something to be said for instance culture as well.

@bot @dcc @Inginsub @nyanide @dj The reason for this is that many of them are what I call, "high on their own supply". Imagine waking up every single waking hour and thinking, "everyone is going to kill me". Sure, you went 4 years of Trump without the RWDS kicking down your door, but when you've replaced your reality with Twitter you're convinced they're gonna come any day now for being LGBT and that Trump will be like your bitch dad. So the most paranoid, the most delusional, the most schizo, end up here. Think the Chloe Sagals of the world, the ones so delusional that they do a flip when the world doesn't affirm every single schizo delusion. The ones paranoid that everyone is a gangstalker so they need a giant blocklist and can be their own janny.That's not counting the chasers.

@nyanide @Inginsub @cassidyclown There was less political spergery from both sides and fewer "no fun allowed" boomers.Seriously, the timeline of mastodon.social right now is an inverse of the kind of shit you find from poasties/NCD boomers. Two of these accounts joined in 2022-23, and one in 2020. So many of these politispergs are from the same time period.There's a lot of loser catladies/city slickers/human bots posting this kind of shit on the mastodon.social timeline with the "top posts". This ends up attracting more of the same kind of users and well, look how people see Mastodon: as another Bluesky.

@bot @Forestofenchantment @Inginsub @cassidyclown @nyanide That's also what fedi is excelling at.Fedi is the closest thing to old Twitter, but with different people and a lower chance of finding art on your TL. I can't go back to Twitter for one of the same reasons I lost interest in YouTube: the community aspect was killed.

@bot @Forestofenchantment @Inginsub @cassidyclown @nyanide To add to this, the same issue affects "legacy" social media.Blocklisting is just an extension of the fact that losers online really love to hold longtime internet grudges.

@bot @Forestofenchantment @Inginsub @cassidyclown @nyanide The interesting part is, how many people are here because they are banned from Twitter or are in a situation where it's too risky, and how many are just paranoid about Elon Musk?I'm sure you'll find more of the latter.

Josh Moon popularized it to me. It seems to be only popular in the mastadon side of things as other areas like pleroma and gnu social (where I'm at) have the same traction they had for years on end.

@nyanide @jexams before mastodon there was an exodus of people from Twitter that left for various reasons. There were a few servers on the Fediverse barely hanging on and then maybe 12+ "edgy" servers took over the network. This was a year or so before Mastodon even showed up. Mastodon slowly brought in new users at first and in 2018 had a big migration of people and only a few years after that, the new people called the people already here for years "dark fedi" lol

@sun @jexams @nyanide I feel like they started calling that as soon as mastodon drew in users in 2016, doing its best to hide the gnu/social part to which mastodon instances barely federated
