✨5th prompt for this new season of /words ✨ What’s your earliest memory of really finding yourself and your people through internet culture (MySpace, forums, chat rooms, Tumblr etc) and how do you think that younger you would recreate this experience in the current internet era? Would it be possible? Please respond with either a comment below or via quote cast here in the channel ✍️

AOL chat rooms, that was a long time ago! I think Discord would be the closest to that experience now. I honestly do not know if it would be the same as far as security goes. I definitely found my people multiple times over the years as the internet has evolved.

Webrings — I came across one about David Lynch and Twin Peaks and was amazed that so many people had a fascination for it that equaled mine at the time. I was too nervous back then to go into real-time conversations with other people like in chats. But enjoying carefully collected and curated content from like-minded people was so fulfilling. Today that might've been enjoying an nft collection or reading posts without interacting 😊

Dang can’t quote or cast but…. The great digg migration solidified Reddits early prowess for pure entertainment and community vibes. It has its glimmers and shards of greatness from time to time still…but that early energy/creativity/in-jokes/humor was pretty unparalleled.
