Wow, I didn't realize ActivityPub or Federated platforms went back that far. What platform/s were you on back then?

It was identi.ca, I join about a year after the flagship server started. https://cosocial.ca/@evan/112457047627977316

Happy belated Fediversery! Such a long time ٩(◕‿◕｡)۶

It must've been interesting to watch Fedi grow, evolve and such.

Congrats! How had you learned about it? How did you use it?

My friends and I were trying to figure out how to set up an isolated WWW resistant to censorship and found identi.ca.

We set up an instance but never federated and used to to send memes to each other for years.

I did create an account on one of the federating services but it was rough back then. No one was tagging their post languages so it was like 10 or so different languages mixed together. I loved it.

Congratulations! I've been around for roughly the same amount of time, and it's wild to see how much things have changed.

I still miss old Identi.ca, though.

I remember getting a lot of
posts i couldn’t read because language tagging wasn’t a thing. it was great.

I definitely had no clue about decentralized social media 15 years ago.

that looks delicious. Do I have to wait 15 years to get one too?
