This thread (on threadiverse) reminiscing about 2000s era internet made me think:
A paradox with the current #fediverse:
it's driven, partly, by nostalgia and longing for the "early internet".
And yet, is built in imitation of modern big-social.
I was struck by the thought "does the fedi capture any of these structures, feelings and vibes?"
I don't think so, at all.
The fedi is balkanised big-social, not new-old-internet, and you can feel it, there's unmet longing.
