When did you ORIGINALLY join Mastodon and/or the Fediverse?

[mrgrumpymonkey@mastodon.social]

@catsalad My join date shows as 2024, but I was originally part of an instance the year prior.

@tk Oh wow, that was even before Fediverse redstone came out!

@catsalad Joining in 2022 AND being Gen X is like a double nut shot here.

[dave_cochran@infosec.exchange]

@catsalad when did the muskening happen?

[sackofbones@kolektiva.social]

@catsalad Well I joined this year. Also who tf put 2027

[miawgogo@fedi.miawgogo.me]

@catsalad@infosec.exchange attempt in 2017, but was on .social so felt weird(was also still in a environment where i couldn't explore my gender so didn't fit in at the time, joined again during the pandemic and it stuck)

For the people that are complaining about this "2022" year you claim exists:

What generation are you?

@catsalad I think it was around 2016-17 or so, I got on a small server run by a person I was familiar with. Found the whole thing confusing. Didn't know how to set things up to suit me, didn't know how anything worked. I gave up on it, most of the feed was in Japanese. Came back on a different, large server the day Elon bought Twitter and this time had no problems at all.
