Yeah I get what you mean, even though I didn’t grew up with BBSes, a tad to young for that. I wholeheartedly think that those mega social media companies are a terrible idea, that now and always show their ugly face, and that socializing should be brought back to: personal homepages, federated blogs and forums and heck even federated video sharing.
Also, I still think its pretty magical that I have an account on feddit.de and can still talk/chat/discuss with you on lemmy.ml. And so can microblog/comment on various mastodon instances while only been registered on one.
Yeah as you say it’s pretty magical … although also janky. It really does show the possibilties of federation in a way that mastodon by itself never seemed to. And @[email protected] great analogy to BBSes!
