so… what the heck is 196?
A number
well duh but like what significance does it have
Time for a third, I guess. But I’ll make it horny!
I’m thinking either OneHundredNinetySex or TgirlProgPosting or something like that.
Teehee :3
Before even finishing reading i just knew it was you
Of course it was me! Who else? 😂
Teehee :3
When the shitposting containment community needs its own containment community:
There are actually three 196s already.
The short version: The original 196 was about to be force-moved from blaha-zone to lemmy.world, and most people would not have that. This caused a shism, and now there are several 196s
Everytime this question comes up, I link to this thread about why they supposedly wanted to move 196, and this thread for more insight on how the community responded.
one of them the og mod attempted to unilaterally move to lemmy.world and locking it… which caused the community to react accordingly, tell the mod to go fuck themselves, and re-created teh community,
then the mod realizing what a massive asshole they were, attempted to fix it by unlocking it. and here we are.
Good ol’ mod drama. That’s how we went from /Risa to getting /tenforward, then some admin drama begat the other/Risa on a different instance. No beef with other /Risa, but the first one can save it.
Good ol’ mod drama.
Tale as old as time. Also, perhaps, an interesting case-study in evolution as it applies to internet culture.
Descent with modification?
ive long considered both these events (og risa and 196 fuckups) to be shining examples of the fediverse gone right. it proves that a shitty instance owner or a shitty mod cant control the users.
everyone just pivoted around the asswipes
It could be an interesting paper to document a few instances of “fediverse gone right” and maybe some of “fediverse gone wrong”; Iʻm thinking how c/ politics at dot world, and the Israel/ Gaza & Support Biden/ Replace Biden debates of ʻ23 and ʻ24, in that election cycle. Because I think a significant counter sub to c/Politics failed to emerge.
So the paper could focus on what factors lead to “successful” fediverse behavior versus “unsuccessful” fediverse behavior.
Which one is the good one? I worry I may have accidentally been posting to he bad one
This one is the good one :3
I still have the other one blocked.
Shut the fuck up before I make a third.
196 196s
We’re actually on the third. The second was the LW version everyone was supposed to be moved to.
Great, now I have to change what I posted last time someone noticed:
TwoThree households, not alike in dignity,
The fediverse, is where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil bits make civil hands unclean.
From forth the brooding loins of thesetwotree foes
Apairthrouple of star-cross’d lovers go offline;
Whose misadventur’d piteous overthrows
Doth with their absence bury their parents’ strife.
The fearful passage of their [removed] love,
And the continuance of their parents’ rage,
Which, but their children’s end, nought could remove,
Is now the twelve hours’ traffic of our post;
The which if you with patient eyes attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.Look what you did!
196, 196, onehundredninetysix and oneninesix *and onehundredandninetysix.
How about 691? or 197? or 1-six-seven? Feel free to use these ideas :)
691s are just the paperwork of the SCP Foundation’s legal team, a bit more serious and a dry read.
there’s also c/%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%B2%D1%8F%D0%BD%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%88%D0%B5%D1%81%D1%82%D1%8C
You can be bi-oneninetysixual, is ok ❤️
Obviously its so you have to follow the rule, and post twice
