are online trans communities dying? years ago things just felt more alive, it feels like everyone is exhausted now and we're collectively giving up or something
>>
>>43117715
yes
>>
>>43117715
The internet in general is falling apart. Social media for everybody isn't what it used to be.
>>
>>43117715
people are dying all the time
people are always dying and being born and u dont even know about it
>>
That's a good thing.
>>
>>43117719
glad to know I'm not the only one feeling this way
>>43117740
that's true but it feels especially bad for trannies
>>
>>43117810
maybe it seems worse for us because after 3-5 years, most trannies either pass and move onto normal life or they isolate themselves even further
>>
Yeah it feels like things are dying down. People used to be a lot more expressive. As for trans people I dono maybe it's just exacerbated a little bit for us because we have more mental health issues/more prone to addiction. I think we have to migrate to irl socialization unironically but that's pretty painful in its own ways.

The tranny fad is over now

>>43117741
Woah *hits blunt* that's like, so deep nona
>>
>>43117715
imageboards are the last bastion of any kind of public commons. everything else is algorithmically tailored by followers/engagement
>>
>>43118133
the switch from thread based websites to profile based websites has been a disaster for the human race
>>
>>43117715
>online community
lol
>trans community
lmao
>online trans community
hahahahahahahahahahah

>>43118133
Unironically true

>>43117715
My youtube had literally nothing worth watching on it this morning. Nothing in the reccomendeds, nothing in subscriptions, just nothing.

I don't know what's going on but I don't think it's a trans thing, and it's definitely not a 4chan thing. Every online community I'm involved in seems to be evaporating.
>>
>>43118133
>>43118155
this is why I continue using only 4fag and newpipe, so it's thread-only by default, and I can swipe right to the algoslop if I need to waste my life some more
>>
>>43117715
everyone's going on hiding.
>>
>>43118155
I never as much as downloaded twitter or instagram or tiktok because of this, it feels weird to follow a person and just listen to whatever they think and believe in instead of engaging with a topic with hundreds of other people.
>>
>>43118155
this. xitter and other social media are consumption-based rather than interaction-based. you just scroll and burn away your braincells while getting ragebaited by the purposefully shitty algorithm.
>>
>>43118634
>newpipe
what's that
>>
>>43118155
>>43118715
Yeah if you think about it, they're directly profiting from causing a massive epidemic of mental illness, and they're doing it on purpose.

The solution to so many of societies really fundamental problems is to roll 1st Cavalry into silicon valley and reduce the population by a tenth, just to remind the nerds who's really in charge.

>>43118717
semi-shitty youtube client for fagdroid (no ads), default screen is list of all your subscriptions' videos in descending order
>>
>>43117715
yes. the communities kill themselves btw
>>
>>43118783
>they're directly profiting from causing a massive epidemic of mental illness, and they're doing it on purpose.
i believe covid was a bioweapon to cull the unprofitable pensioners & irrelevant old celebrities, while stripping hundreds of millions of their childhoods and cripple their socialization skills to turn them into terminally online misanthropic incels that'll form the bulk of popular support for a future Business Plot coup
>>
literally all communities for everything are dying. everyone is fucking miserable
>>
>>43118883
Okay, that's a bit outlandish.
I don't "believe" silicon valley is deliberately causing an epidemic of mental illness for money, because it's a fact.

Dating apps are getting sued for it.

i am from the year 2036
the internet as a whole will be seperated into
>normie internet/social media
>niche federated newsgroup/bbs echo chambers
give it a decade, it is foretold

What is bbs?

You're realizing that you have nothing in common except a fetish

Bulletin Board Services.
Nona is very very very old.
>>
>>43119343
It's okay I'm old too but just not very tech oriented. I kind of realized the other day it's pointless to seek socialization online anymore and I'm just going to stick with the groupchat of 15 straight cis people I've known for a long time.
>>
I'm just happy I got to be here before it all went to shit and chan culture died
>>
>>43119343
i'm from the year 2036, of course i'm old
(im not that old though, unless 30 is old, it feels old but i'm unsure, but i grew up post-bbs with stuff like phpbb so, i apologize for the larp)
>>43119712
>I kind of realized the other day it's pointless to seek socialization online anymore
true, it's sad really
i miss the pre-monitized web, everyone was in it for the love of the game, though consolidation & commodification was inevitable I suppose because of hosting costs
like >>43118133 said, imageboards feel like the last echos of an era bygone, and even then they're not the same
i think it's just the end of the public-facing web, there's too much noise for anything meaningful, it's basically a high fructose corporate intranet for jedi mind tricks at this point
>I'm just going to stick with the groupchat of 15 straight cis people I've known for a long time.
don't blame you, but you never know
>>
>>43118883
you're correct but it's only the first horseman of the Apocalypse
