Year of the Linux Desktop Fediverse!

Side note, DAE find calling them “normies” kinda icky? It’s like straight outta 4chan

    I don’t think there are any experiences on the fediverse right now that are comparable to TikTok. Loops is still beta, isn’t it? If Reddit was banned and people clocked to some Chinese forum I could agree with this meme.

      Love your avatar. I miss Netscape. Not that I remember it being awesome or anything. Just nostalgia.

        Compared to Internet Explorer it certainly was awesome, as I recall.

        Yeah, same. I sort of vaguely remember it as a kid. I had this saved on my computer from somewhere and saw it while making my Lemmy account. What’s cool is that it is actually animated on some platforms.

        I remember just feeling cool for using something different than everyone else.

        Kind of uncomfortable how my other tech choices map onto this logic. Linux, vim, fediverse, … Am I a dickhead?

          No, having a liking for things that aren’t mainstream, in itself, doesn’t make you a dickhead.

          Being a dickhead makes one a dickhead.
