Most flavours of metal, hard rock, punk, some blues stuff like SRV and Gary Moore. Basically, if it has loud guitars in it, I’m there.

Yes, I can’t stand complete silence. I have a fan going at pretty much all times, summer or winter, and I definitely can’t sleep without it. I have a white noise generator, but I prefer the fan because I’m so used to the airflow that the room feels dead and suffocating without it now.
While you’re correct, it’s just a clunky term. I think some other way to refer to the whole thing will probably come along soon, and in a few years, people will regard saying fediverse the same way we look back on people talking about “surfing the information superhighway” or whatever.
Over on Mastodon, there are relays you can sub to to help populate things. I don’t think there’s any such functionality in this corner of the fediverse yet, but it’s surely only a matter of time.
Yeah, there was definitely a lot of, “If you don’t like it, go back to the bird site” around the time I first signed up to Mastodon. It seems to have fallen off a lot now. It presumably will here too. Even if something has only been around a short while, a culture gets established. There’s bound to be some friction when a bunch of new people show up, and some of it will be unpleasant on both sides. Hopefully, things will reach a new equilibrium soon and it’s one we can all live with.
Yeah, but we used to call it the information superhighway and the worldwide web. Internet IS the good term. It may well be that fediverse sticks around so long that we all get used to it, but at the moment, eh. I think if someone somewhere suggests a good alternative, we’ll all likely jump on it.
