types wolfram alpha (I presume) finds the solution in less than 20 seconds
OP’s referring to the days before live text was a thing. Now you can just point your camera at a Jackson Pollock and get the solution to the square root of aleph null divided by Rayo’s number as quickly as it takes to open the app.

Many of the users there appear to be unconcerned about their future ability to access the platform they’re currently on that allows them to express how unconcerned they are about their future ability to access the platform.
Being federated, I too, am as unconcerned about what happens to them and their platform as they appear to be.
For the users that do care, hopefully they will care enough about their future selves to get federated as well, despite the understandable urge to cling to what is dying.
Get federated (until the fediverse gets enshittified) or get your platform monetized into uselessness.

That explains why I like it here.
Older audience member here. I remember seeing the DOS 2.0 box sitting on my grandfather’s shelf, and him teaching me hours to use the CLI to make in inventory of my baseball cards.
I must’ve been about 5-6 years old then, and I later got to experience the absolute magic of 14.4 and still later that fad of whatever those .mp3 things were supposed to be…
I left reddit and made the effort to learn how these newfangled federal sites work, and I’ll keep at it. Never did quite understand what that clock social platform was about, or why the youngers like it so much, though suspect that’s by design.
Okay, I won’t.
