“P-please go see the 5298 new Marvel movies so you can understand Avengers: The Rise of Scrimblo in three years” Shut the fuck up stupid corpo thinks he can tell me what to do “I need you go to see the blue people movie again” YES SIR GLORY TO EYWA

The value of the metaphor of the “home” page and “visitor” count - everyone instinctually understands that someone’s “home” is not up for criticism by guests!

Twitter is designed to cause tensions. I have seen very little conflict on here and I think part of it is because people can explain about themselves much better on here. There is also no anon messaging here like there is on tumblr, no dms where people can send rude messages without other people seeing it, no trending where people can dogpile on folks. I also think the nature of html and css coding creates an -

environment where people are focused on creativity - their energies are put into that instead of creating discord.

i have observed that there is a scale of Unmoderated Internet Hellscapes. tumblr is on one end. 4chan is on the other. neocities is dead centre

i think different people come here for different things. tumblr/twitter types come here because they're frustrated with social media. 4chan types come here because the terms of service let them get away with anything. as far as i can tell they get along purely because they're not aware of each other's existence

I suppose it helps that, being a network of individual websites, you can pick and choose what you want to see. Want the anarchic cynicism of imageboards without the sense of humour of a 9-year-old in a CoD lobby? The absurdism of Tumblitter, but by someone who won't come and kill you if you call yourself the wrong word once? The internet is thine oyster
