I see a lot of people talking about how Mastodon "Feels like the Internet I remember from 20 years ago."

That's no accident. That's Federation. That's UseNet, IRC, Email, Message Boards, etc. What do they all have in common?

Federation: Users congregating around watering holes of common interest, but still being a part of a larger whole.

THIS IS HOW THE INTERNET WAS DESIGNED TO BE. And I am HERE for it.

@smitty I got that exact feeling when I signed up and started looking around. Reminded me of being a young teen and discovering IRC, using Netscape etc.. Gave me a real thrill! 🍸
