Neurodivergent, certainly. But I also have a sneaking suspicion that a large majority of us are millenials. We’ve gone through this repeatedly in the internet age, changing chat or social platforms. We’re the early adopters and eventually everybody on earth comes to crush it to death and then we rebuild somewhere else.
And for us Gen-X/Gen-Y folks, all the Fediverse needed to do was to say “it’ll be just like the Internet in the 1990s” and we were like “HELL YEAH SIGN ME UP”

Generation has nothing to do with it. Tech literary does.
nothing? idk about that
you say that but i just saw this post about the Formulars for different kinds of rizz in my time line
I already told you I’m a millennial, so you already know I am too old to understand this shit. 😂
Yep! I remember message boards and the glory of bb code, when DMs were called PMs and everyone knew each other’s name.

Gives me BBS era / Usenet vibes, yesss
Yes! The millenials too though. We’re as nostalgic (or maybe even more nostalgic) for the 90s internet because it was our entire childhoods.
(Millennial is gen Y 😜)
Oh, yeah. I never see it used and it didn’t even register. 🤦
