Guten Morgen! Heute ist der dunkelste Tag.

Die gute Nachricht: Morgen ist es wieder heller.

Winteranfang.

Draußen blüht eine verzweifelte Rose. Löwenmäulchen blühen auf dem Balkon. Kirschbäume an der ehemaligen Mauer.

Dafür habe ich keine gute Nachricht.

Billed as the “homepage of the Black internet,” BlackPlanet was a social network ahead of its time. It went live in 1999 — five years before Facebook — and amassed one million users within its first year online. By 2008, it had 15 million.

@TheAtlantic takes a nostalgic look back at its impact on culture, politics and relationships, within the Black community and beyond, and whether smaller, more dedicated digital spaces could be the answer to a “kinder, less dangerous, and more fun” future online.

🔒 Paywall – « In a social-media era dominated by the provocation and vitriol of billionaire-owned mega-platforms, it can be hard to imagine a time when the concept of using the internet to connect with people felt novel, full of possibility—and when a site billed as the homepage of the Black internet had millions of active users. […] BlackPlanet is often overlooked in mainstream coverage of social-media history. But at its peak, it wasn’t just some niche forum. […] BlackPlanet arguably laid the foundation for social media as we know it, including, of course, Black Twitter. » https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2024/05/blackplanet-social-media-history/677839/
