@evacide Letting big tech companies host and own your accounts was a mistake. In the early days we hosted our own stuff, our own websites, email, etc.. We need to go back to that. Not your keys, not your home.

@evacide There was a shooting more or less in my vicinity today. My first reaction was to long for the days when a simple text search on Twitter would have been enough to figure what was going on.

@evacide is that old enough to have had a geocities page?
I still kind of feel like the idea that we would all have "homepages" linked together by common interests and spontaneous social networking was one of our better ones. Fediverse is pretty cool too though... -

@evacide let me see... IRC, ICQ, Forums and message boards, Facebook, MMORPG, Twitter... yes, pretty much. I feel a bit like a drifter now. No real home. Just go in and out, take what I need, wave hello, and carry on.

@evacide masto is my twelfth social platform if you count forums and IRC as single entities
and it's by far the best, even with all its problems
