Posted by Danika Heh. It kinda amuses me that we're all going to have our online presences as we age. Makes sense though. All those ancient Usenet people needed to go somewhere.  |

Posted by Danika That's even better! Urbex always sounds awesome, though I'm not certain I would have the guts for it myself. |

Posted by DanikaWhen I was a kid on another forum there were a couple of regulars who were in their 50s and 60s -- that forum's mostly populated by twenty-somethings now, but it feels more like it's full of crochety old people now than it did back then when it had literal grandparents on it. I've sort of just giving up on feeling old or comparing my age to other people, it just kind of seems like a really good way to make yourself miserable for arbitrary reasons. I wasted most of my twenties feeling like I was doomed and there was no way out so I just did nothing, and I kind of want my thirties to not be that. I feel like I had some kind of reverse midlife crisis or something and now I'm going to live out my 20s. My life is a fuckin mess |

My mom's in her fifties and plays games with friends in Discord servers more than I do.
I can kinda get the feeling of age-range being supposedly wasted. Sometimes I think I wasted my teenage years panicking and isolating myself. But then I remember that's what teenagers do. I don't dwell on it too much. look forward to your 30's though! a lot of the active users here are in that age range, but we're all just nerds at the end of the day |

I used Mastodon as a replacement of Twitter for a few days, but I was still unhappy. at least it was less evil of software, I guess |

♥12588 ✿4775 ★93 Mastodon has some serious cultural issues I feel like (or at least the subset I hang around in); felt too much like I was walking on eggshells, and usually I'm not the sort of person who gets easily bothered by "too much political correctness" or whatever. |

Posted by NicolynI kinda get what you mean? I don't know if that's the precise shade of meaning I'd use, but during the brief time that I used Mastodon I really did get the sense that people there were out for blood for people who had the wrong opinions or whatever rather than being concerned with doing right or being offended. It's like swimming in a shark tank, except sometimes the sharks are furries Twitter has its set of problems but... they're not quite the same ones but I'm way too sleepy to elucidate what I mean so instead of taking responsibility for what I'm posting I'm just going to leave it hanging and then go brush my teeth.

I guess I'm the odd one here since I enjoy Mastodon, but it still has the same problems inherent in any social media site. Every time I post about tech or something I'm interested in I usually get little to no engagement so I don't post as often as I reply or just meow on there. ____________________ produced by or under license from cat witches co, ltd |

I mean, it is decentralized, so not all instances of Mastodon are alike. Though most of them are communist programmer furries |

Yeah, one thing I sadly kinda miss about Twitter is being able to rant about Albany related news (radio/retail/etc.) Most of my early followers were local stuff"Miracles happen, when you believe..."

Posted by Darkhero I tend to flip-flop depending on what site I'm on. If I'm on an IRC or Discord channel I tend to go full lowercase. It'd probably be fine to do it on this site since it's generally fairly lax. ____________________ Giant Paratroopa Affected by 'Wooster Syndrome' ++++!! Handsome Gentleman 7/23/18 |

Posted by Darkherojust switch back and forth between lowercase and formal typing depending on nothing but your whims like i do, that's the cool thing to do |
