So, Mastodon. So far so good! I'm quite enjoying the experience and *starting* to get used to the interface and instances, the federation etc.!

Anyway, if you've come over from Twitter like me, even if just to test the waters, give this toot a boost (I know, makes me laugh as well) and let's all start following each other!

@LordArse Hello!! I hope this platform makes waves. Feels a bit like the old days of the Internet.
Now, let's see about getting BBSes and forums back...

@lunarloony @LordArse Iโ€™d love to see forums make a comeback. IRC servers and channels too ๐Ÿ‘

@gpowerf @LordArse IRC is pretty good! I do wonder if there's a market for a federated "rich" chat platform, though.
Show threadDr. Guillermo Power Nov 6, 2022

@lunarloony @LordArse we are probably the wrong people to ask given that we are nostalgic enough for old tech to start social media accounts exclusively to discuss old stuff.

Seems like yesterdayโ€™s news. But what do the cool kids think?

@WithnailMarwood @LordArse itโ€™s not too bad. Itโ€™s much like Twitter, but decentralised.

@WithnailMarwood @LordArse just interact with someone or several people. There are no AI or algorithms so what you click on will be what you see. Just play with it. Have fun!

@LordArse It's a wee bit confusing but I think I'm getting there with it. The real pain is reconnecting with everyone in the retrogaming community to make it feel like home again, but it'll come in time I'm sure.
