I miss the predecessors to forums. I loved when it all was not web based. Major doom and nntp.

Wait, the fediverse Isabel to cross the platforms? I had not picked up on that. I thought the fediverse was an IAM thing. Is it more of an ESB?

This all still reminds me of Usenet, nntp before it was ruined by spam. I would love an nntp client like thing for this. I can bring the data to me once per day. Efficient, I don’t need to linger more than necessary.

Twitter has lost 66% of its value since Elon Musk bought it in c/fediverse@lemmy.ml
