I'm laughing my ass off at these zoomers coming up with this "new thing" they call "The Indie Web" which is "like, we have this new idea bro, what if the internet was people having their own websites instead of the entire internet existing on 5 big tech sites? whoa dude that's like such a new and original idea we are so smart i cant believe stupid boomers never thought of this, we should call it "The Indie Web" or Web4".

Relax bro, zoomers are finally doing something correctly and you're complaining?

The Indie web thing is explicitly motivated zoomer fake nostalgia for the "old internet" that they never experienced though. A key part of the rhetoric is the return to a "golden age" before the encroachment of FAAAG and social media
That's why they use neocities which is obviously a (spiritual) successor to the geocities of old. (no one uses nekoweb)

Also, the blogosphere was always for retarded normies

Soooooo another mastodon fediverse fork?

>>105654964
>that they never experienced though
I think this is an elder zoomer thing, and they most definitely remember this stuff from the mid-late 2000's. Dude, imagine being a 1995-2000 zoomer: old enough to fall in love with older emo girls on-sight but not old enough to date them. By the time you went through puberty, they'd all vanished.

The idea is a good idea, it's ruined because it's ran by zoomers. Who will immediately implement all of the corporate double speak of CoC committees and rabid over-moderation to assist with purity spiraling any good that could come of it.

The problem with zoomers is they were raised in the zoomer generation, where safety > freedom. It's not their fault, they were simply raised to lick the boot and now can't even see their own chains. If freed from them, their question isn't how to live without chains, it's what kind of chains should they wear next.

Don't believe me? Here's their CoC:
https://indieweb.org/code-of-conduct

>Be respectful of other people, respectfully ask people to stop if you are bothered, and if you can't resolve an issue, contact staff. If you are being a problem, it will be apparent and you'll be asked to leave.

>IndieWeb spaces are an inclusive environment, based on treating all individuals respectfully, regardless of gender (including transgender status), sexual orientation, age, disability, medical conditions, race and/or ethnicity, caste, nationality, religion (or lack thereof), physical appearance, politics, ideology (real world or tech), or software preferences.

>We value respectful behavior above individual opinions.

You know why the old internet was good? Because it was humanity unfiltered, and humanity isn't inherently respectful. Respect is earned, not mandated. There wasn't a single fucking website on the old internet that demanded you respect every person there. This is a modern, Gen-Z and Gen-Alpha mindset that you are owed respect for existing and powerful all-seeing moderators will judge you for respectfulness instead of determining if you're breaking a code of ethics. NOBODY was respectful on the old internet by default. It had the worst arguments ever.

That's why it was good. That's why it was human. This has failed before it even started.

This is objectively a good thing. I can only hope they'll persist.

>>105658109
We handed everything to corporations. We made the internet a worse place. I don't use social media, and I'm not saying zoomer are doing it right or anything. But I think that we managed to fuck up the internet before zoomers.

>>105658362
this
if you want a bunch of sycophants who do nothing but agree with each other all day, you can go simulate that with ChatGPT right now. You can't simulate two people getting in a white-knuckle argument over some minor plot detail of a movie from 10 years ago or esoteric knowledge of a video game that required intense hacking to uncover.

I still want it to succeed but this is already adopting the baggage that was specially made to kill the wild west internet. This is thek ind of shit that results in some shadowy committee banning people for vague, unspoken reasons of 'Disrespect' like what happens with bluesky now.

>>105658401
>We handed everything to corporations.
Who is 'We'? Millennials weren't the ones who did that. Arguably we always were under the thumb of Corporations of some stripes.
Did YOU sell Geocities to Yahoo?
Did YOU close YTMND because it was racist?
Did YOU discontinue flash and kill Newgrounds?

If not, why on Earth could it be our fault?

>>105658434
>But I still think we were the ones that let the worsening happen. It was on our watch.
Oh I don't disagree with that, but the idea that we all have to agree with each other *or else* is absolutely a nu-internet thing. Most of twitter's life was lived during the era where you absolutely could have arguments with people without getting shadowbanned/actual banned (that shit only started with Gamergate)

There is no fixing things. If you made a project right now that wasn't loaded with insane post-modern bias like >>105658570 it would get nuked off the internet. It doesn't matter if it's 'indie' or not, the people who worship intersectionality would kill it.

Simply put, that CoC is there to cover their asses because they have to kneel to their true corporate god to exist, and their corporate god demands they backseat white people and kneel when a corporate voice speaks.

>People here do not truly care about technology outside of some of the generals it's either /pol/shit or shit flinging over which piece of software is better or if zoomers fucked over everything or millenials fucked over everything
This, sadly, is technology. We didn't make it that way, but it's just a fact of life now that everything is political, and thus everything is a small facet in the disgusting term called the 'Culture War' to describe how the modern internet at large has lost its mind and made everything into a dichotomy that lines up neatly along political lines.

What will gen alpha do

>>105660183
Whatever it is, it will not be good.

I don't understand what the fuck is wrong with people these days. It's obvious the generational war is stirred up by the same people that collectively shit on all of us and ruin every thing we love. But instead of simply ignoring those people (or killing them) I have to suffer through the same lame cold takes by idiots on the internet everyday. If you point out what's really happening these idiots join in with the bots and shills to call you crazy.

When I was a child whitehouse.com was a porn website and every forum, mailing list, BBS and USENET discussion was either a flame war, pirated software being shared or a bunch of people having a heated discussion. The webrings were filled with OC and life was good. No one had a retarded CoC or even a TOS either. At best there were just a couple of rules everyone ignored anyway unless someone was being an annoying faggot to the point where everyone else agreed they should kill themselves. At which point a mod might step in and give them a token ban. Which we all knew was easy to by-pass anyway. Typically, we just ignored them until they fucked off to annoy the people someplace else.

What happened? Why did you all willingly become retarded and why do you continue to participate in this madness? Where did all the crackers go and why aren't they crashing all these social media websites with no survivors?

The thing that bothers me the most is the fact that so many no talent hacks have managed to make a living off being annoying faggot attention whores. I don't understand why people send them money. Who would willingly hand over "donations" to these faggots when it's becoming impossible to even afford a weeks worth of food on the average first world country salary?

Please stop ruining all my hobbies. Thanks.

>>105660264
I know. I'm only posting this so that your heartfelt complaint doesn't just fade and leave you with the feeling that it's been left unread. I have nothing to add but to screech into the void, just as you are. If I were less eepy I would write up a passionate post of my thoughts on why and how but really it doesn't matter.

I'm younger than you by probably like 5-8 years, but in my eyes at this point it's best to find other creative types and hide away with them from the madness. It's the only cope I can think of (and I still get tilted from time to time when these circles get infected by the current twitter drama of the week, fuck off). I cannot put the depth of my hate into words. Everything public is nothing more than worship of the corporate boot killing discussion, and preventing our very culture from evolving as it was through the early 2000s in my childhood. Everyone and everything feels deathly afraid of sincerity in a quest for finding what's most marketable instead, it's completely stalled the internet's culture, see, I did it anyway, there's my whining post of starting to feel old. I wonder if someone born in 2010 would be nostalgic for today's internet (Probably, I can see about ten thousand ways it can get much, much worse. Required IDs, whitelisting IPs on a service provider level and so on)

Ah I see. New generational hate propaganda update. Blame the regular people born between the mid-80s-mid-90s for everything shit about the current world. Same thing they did with my parents when I was entering the work force and the economy went to shit during the 2008 crash.

Sure it's my parent's fault that I can afford a home. Just like it's my fault you can't find a job.

Maybe, and stick with me here: Maybe they're just playing us against each other while the same richfags are laughing all the way to the bank.

Don't care if you're paid to post this shit, a bot or just a retard that fell for propaganda. You're the same: A massive faggot no one should listen to.

Can't wait for the next update in 10-20 years time. When the Gen Alpha or whatever they're calling the current children will be blaming the "zoomers" for everything being shit.

>>105662747
Yes. It's about control and money. At first it was race, then sexual preference, now the game is blame the other generation. Anything to keep the masses fighting each other, it's why politicians run circles debating abortion, trans and gay rights and race rather than bringing down the average person's rent.

These things happen in cycles, soon we'll circle back around to another topic when interest begins to die down, all media has done this in the interests of the haves against the have-nots from the dawn of time. You're 100% right. In twenty years gen A will be calling Zoomers shit for bringing in forced ID usage on the internet when it's really just another corporate and government game. Things will only change if it gets so bad that people cannot get 3 solid meals a day (see any insane authoritarian state that hasn't broken down despite terrible conditions and a boot clearly on your neck in plain sight)

Import uneducated masses that don't know any better, make them fight each other, keep the lower classes distracted and you win. (The immigration imports accomplish all 3 goals at once for example). The west will decline not from a foreign power, but by the decadence and greed of it's upper class fighting their own countrymen instead of having any sense of noblesse oblige.

The funny part is that this CoC is absolutely non-binding because what they gonna do to website that you'll be self-hosting?
This is something that will make or break this project. Ability to these thin-skinned kids to grow up and realize that in their imaginary truly free Internet they have no power to silence anyone.
What they gonna do if someone will use their Indie web tools to create self-hosted, independed and disconnected from any form of control blog where they will go full unironic Nazi?

Ultimately it's each generation's fault for rolling over and letting corporations and governments do what they want. No millennial (outside of /g/) ever said "fuck Google and all their spyware!" Instead everyone just decided they didn't care as long as they got youtube in return.

>The real question you should ask is how did your generation manage fuck up such a good thing for the new generations.

well you see timmy the corporate oligarchy decided that conditioning children to use tablets and phones would prep them to be indoctrinated into their sandbox system of apps and services and for the most part it worked. nobody fucked things up. the corporations psyoped those kids who are now drones.

>>105652445
This.
Good ideas don't have to be original to be good.

>>105664016
Corpos tried all kinds of psyops on millenials and it didn't work for shit. In fact marketers often talk about it in conferences and research documents (especially that it's effrctively impossible to market to millenials, but every other generation is ezpz).

>>105663951
Many millenials did say that. Think about other related things like ows. The problem is we live in democracies, so even having a rather large group actively doing something is not enough, you need the sheep and the morrons to also follow.
In summary, I only agree so far as it's a shame thst less than 66% of milleniald followed through, though to be expected.

>>105662894
you 100% can. Millenials did not have that problem, the opposite in fact. Kids can, actually, think independently as a rule, evem though you are an exception.

>>105662747

>>105662501
trannies and cocs literally didn't exist in the millenials' time. Your parents created them and you demanded more, xementing their power while we laughed. We should have instead given you the spankong of a lifetime since your parents never educated you so we ought to have, but it is still entirely your fault. Corporate comes up with bullshit all the time, it took until you came around for it to have any power.

>>105660264
You're a younger zoomer so you don't get it. We, on the other hand, have jobs. Jobs where the older zoomers have been coming in for a few years now. This is why we see forst hsnd that yes, it truly is the zoomers' fault.

I like it when the Kids These Days rediscover and do their own new old good stuff even if a lot of them are bringing their lunacy to it (gender dysphoria, etc.)
Of course, you can help fix this like I did by having your own website/Gemini capsule/gopherhole and be based on it

Having a barely-customized Movable Type blog doesn’t inspire as much as a Geocities-flavored thing

This is really all people need to host their own media content, you can stream 4K on one and run a web server easily enough.
If everyone on the internet owned their own such device and contributed usage we'd instantly see a decline in centralization.

>DUDE THEY'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING!!!!!
No they're not. The good internet didn't come about as some social movement, it was that way because it was created by intelligent people. Zoom zooms always rotate between different activism campaigns that never accomplish anything. This will never take off because zoomers fundamentally lack critical thinking skills. Instead of making yet another gay activism "community", they could just boycott all the major platforms. But they can't do that, so their claims to wanting an "indie internet" are 100% preformative. Why else would they need to create a whole identity around it?

true
“just make a website” was the only option back in the late 90s
however
for people who want that kind of thing now, you have to go against the grain and set up your own website instead of posting to Facebook or Bluesky or Threads or whatever
so it’s handy to have a website and a name for this kind of thing, especially if you want to coordinate on open standards like, say, pingbacks or spiritual successors to those

>>105652975

Yes, they do.

>>105668290
computer nerds didn't put cocs anywhwere. They're too busy being nerds to care about it. Zoomers put extreme pressures on companies and their mba niggers to put that shit in everywhere and publicly attack any project that doesn't have one.

>>105668614
CoCs were being put in way earlier than that

>>105668622
feminazis were always there. Millenials laighed. Zoomers worshipped them. Zoomers were teens and thus the most important audience aeouns that time.Whqt were they doing? canceling and unpersoning people they didn't like.

>>105668640
Millenials back in the early 2000s weren’t all in on the sort of thing that would be later called woke
Only nowadays are only a few millenials bucking the trend, in part because the wokies overplayed their hand and my fellow griller millenials stopped being doormats
I’ve known more than a few based zoomers but they’ve grown up in a panopticon and so they’re more likely to at least pretend to go along with all the woke shit and their idea of rebelling against woke shit is likely to be something that doesn’t go quite as far as, say, a right-wing boomer would want to turn the clock back to

>>105654964

Congrats anon! You're a bitter old boomer now

>>105668715
The oldest ones are almost 30, yes, but generations span 10–15 years
there are 20-year-old zoomers now

that code of conduct it's dead on arrival what made the early internet great was it's wild west nature

TRVTH NVKE:
Old forums and imageboards didn't disappear because Mark Zuckerberg personally killed the operators and destroyed the servers, they disappeared because the users stopped using them.
99% of the users of those old forums WILLINGLY moved to mainstream sites because they liked them better.
It's the same with AI generated content, as much as you don't like it 99% of the population will happily consume it.

>>105662980
look at the useless friends in shock doing absolutely nothing. reacting instead of acting. allowing the worst among them to do horrific things and just sitting uselessly in awe and entertainment. gen z really is the devil's favorite generation.
