I miss the days before it became all corporatized. The days of the early world wide web and gopher made the internet a whole lot of fun. I had a blast with usenet and internet relay chat as well. Even email was freaking awesome. I remember getting excited when I'd receive messages. Thankfully that excitement is getting rekindled due in a large part to corporate's own hubris. The growth of the fediverse is making the internet fun again.
Yeah, digging into the fediverse is making things feel fresh again.
It's giving everything a new spin since it's all interconnected in a way only the open web could achieve. For example, I've upvoted and replied to this from Mastodon.
If it's already this awesome, I can't wait to see where it's headed.
