I love you guys. Lemmy is seriously the most fun I’ve had online in a long while. Also loving the serious posts and comments.
Honestly I just jumped to Lemmy after dndmemes sent me this way and it feels like I’m delving into early internet forums back in the day, fresh and new and full of excitement for the future
I know exactly what you mean. Fresh optimism. For fun, not for money or algorithms.
Reddit just nuked all my accounts, nice to back to a more open community!

This image brought to you by the time-period when anything with young people had to have skateboarding, surfing, or roller blading.

Don’t forget your dual-wheel, 4D+ mouse!
Hold on to your butts - we’re gonna surf the web
This picture makes me nostalgic for an era I barely remember being alive for.

My reaction to this post
Nice to meet you, fellow explorers of cyberspace!
Does it really feel like the old web though? I’m a zoomie (22) and I kinda developed a rose tinted nostalgia for the old web (Windows 98 era) where I didn’t even live in (tbf apparently a lot of zoomers have some nostalgia obsession with some sort of era).
Veteran lads, can Lemmy capture the old web feeling?
Velcro shoes were the best
