@sun The Fediverse's "Eternal September" started in 2021, in my opinion.

That's assuming the guy didn't fake his death.

@realcaseyrollins Castration is sometimes done to prevent prostate cancer from spreading.

@realcaseyrollins What if it's done to prevent something like cancer from spreading?

That's what I meant by "live blog posts". Liveblogging is basically asynchronous or real-time (micro)-blogging.

@frost @waltercool @mrsaturday @zaitcev I think there are some add-ons for some popular forum software that enabled ActivityPub support. I know Discourse plans to include it, if they haven't already.

@zaitcev @waltercool @mrsaturday Convenience for the end-user, I guess. Why have your customers/clients jump through hoops creating another account when they can use something that they already use?

Also, I've seen cases where game developers create forums for their games, but some people will refuse to use said forums because "they're outdated", so fans will create unofficial Discord servers instead and they become the popular place to discuss said games.

>Twitter / X = scam replacement for IRC.
How is Twitter supposed to be a replacement for IRC? I know the hashtags were inspired by the # notation for IRC channels, but Twitter itself was originally meant for posting "live blog posts" via SMS.

If anything Twitter is more of a replacement for RSS or the Finger protocol.
