Don’t care, man. Facebook made me hate the whole concept of selling my friends and family to a corpo syndicate in order to… communicate with them. I can text, man.

at first I thought this was a post talking about spacehey which is cool but I don’t think I’d want to use another social media run by a big tech company.

I’ve heard this every 3 years since I stopped using MySpace.

Came back wrong

I’m good on social media. Used both Myspace and Facebook. My mental health is so much better not being on them.

Nice! That one Weird Al song will be relevant again! Unless it’s exactly like it was, HTML and all, I’m not going back. I still have my old profile in a zip file somewhere on my NAS.

A few more moves like this and “two cans and a string” will finally take off. I’ve been saving cans and string all my life, just for this near future moment. My ship will finally come in and now everyone who is sorry will be sorry! /s

Let’s jump RIGHT back into another corporate owned social media site that will sell everyone’s data, enshittify, go public, and then squeeze everyone to death.

Apparently we’re incapable of learning this lesson.

Perfect, they can now lose all your data a second time.

Ya know? Most of the time I don’t get to say this, but I think if the fediverse had a MySpace type service, I think the fediverse version might actually out-perform the official real version of MySpace. Which would probably be the thing that makes some corporate entity try to sue the fediverse.

Now in theory, MySpace can’t sue this Fediverse version of MySpace. For clarity sake, let’s call this fictional version of MySpace “FediSpace”.

So if MySpace tried to sue FediSpace, we all know that the decentralized nature of the fediverse should make that more or less impossible. But how would it hold up in real life? You can make all the laws you want. You can plan your government to run however you want. If the last few years have taught me anything it’s that none of that matters. If the people with money want to win, the courts are not an obstacle. They will make shit up, ignore shit, do whatever they can so the company with the money wins in court.

I just have no idea what that would look like. I don’t rule out the possibility, but I think it would require thousands of lawsuits. And I don’t see MySpace footing the bill for that. So I have no idea how to imagine it.

A hedge fund that bought the name to milk nostalgia is coming back

Thanks MySpace!! You reminded me that Digg is trying to be a thing again too!!

Crazy to think this site single-handedly had cheerleaders learning HTML back in the day

Making YET ANOTHER comeback!

Pretty sure this one will end as well as the last one.

They are going to fuck it up, I guarantee it. AI everywhere and the most dog shit UI. Look at digg as an example.
