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

[virtulis@loud.computer]

@catsalad @loebas despite everyone's best efforts, unfortunately, it did

[westernexposure@mastodon.ie]

@catsalad Yep. You've also forgotten Gen X.

[atarifrosch@fedifreu.de]

@catsalad You missed 2022. That was the year I joined.

[avorritold@piaille.fr]

@catsalad all' right so you've got a problem with people from 2022. Ok I won't take it personally, even if I'm crying

[kurio@sunny.garden]

@catsalad voted 2027 bc 2022 isn't in the options.

[tangersoto@col.social]

@catsalad 2022

[senil@gts.social.senil.me]

@catsalad Very briefly during the holiday period a few years back, Apple suddenly hammered down on tumblr in a way that would remove them from the app store if they didn't do anything, and they chose to go overboard and ban a ton of tags, including girl. Also among the list that are in the "wtf" tier are: insomnia, CW, paint mixing, stim, stimboard, sugar, long post, and even more.

I think at the time there were a bunch of porn bots running rampant and that was why Apple cracked down on them, it was just the timing of it was the usual "nobody is fucking here, it's Christmastide" and they decided to just look at all of the tags porn bots were flooding and called it a day.

[ellieraejaye@chaosfem.tw]

@catsalad of course I joined in 2022, the year that apparently didn't happen.

[nanianmichaels@tech.lgbt]

@catsalad No love for the Xenials?

[davep@infosec.exchange]

@catsalad I thought I was special!

[analogfusion@c.im]

@catsalad They tell me I'm a boomer, but the later year of my birth indicates I'm part of some unknown "other" group. ‍️

[danana_dread@tech.lgbt]

@catsalad I can't believe you did me like this twice in a row.

[knitronomicon@mastodonapp.uk]

@catsalad I joined in 2022, and I'm old. No idea what 'generation' I am - next one on from my parents? One above my nibling? Who cares.

[catsalad@infosec.exchange]

@davep April 2017?

What are you, account #2 on infosec.exchange??

[davep@infosec.exchange]

@catsalad Something like that 🤪

[kristiana@mastodon.uno]

@catsalad I lied, naturally.

[lumi@snug.moe]

@catsalad @davep oh heck i joined april 2017 too, though on niu.moe :3

[simonzerafa@infosec.exchange]

@davep @catsalad

No idea which month.

[davep@infosec.exchange]
