We were sold an Internet of connection and community.
I first got online using Q-Link n the late 80s. AOL n 92. The real Internet in 95. Yes, I was one of the first of the Eternal September.

It feels like an #EternalSeptember moment for activism. I think some of the resulting conversation was great, but I didn't see a lot of evidence the kerfuffle broke containment. Like virtually no mention on:

I love the phrase #EternalSeptember to describe the impact of easy internet access.

Our previous systems of #FactChecking are insufficient, but we cam create better. Just little things like #AltText can build upon each other.
I wish #eternalseptember would end and the #aiwinter would get here soon.

At first in year 2013 and early 2014, I thought it was just a fad. Social media users poisoning minds + originating hate via meme machines. I thought, just another Internet trend / fad. But then it became New #EternalSeptember - since year 2013, hate is popular #ToxicPopularity

One of my first encounters with the Internet in the mid 90s was an article in some consumer IT magazine, where Erik Naggum greeted the newcomers sporting this t-shirt.

"The Internet" was in the hands of librarians, universities... #EternalSeptember eventually replaced people who were sincere, honest, accurate information providers with those best at attraction, manipulation, selling. All the bullshit techniques of world prey on our brains now

my generation, late genX and millennial, found our only home on the internet and it was all good until YOU #boomers came along. now all is full of antivaxxers and useful idiots. you do not want to learn how to spot russian trolls and misinformation, share it regularly. can't google and verify […]

german lefties and alt-right are on youtube rage baiting by doxxing each other while #X is violating #EU #law on daily basis with far right content and no one even gives a fuck anymore and i start to wonder if people are plain and simple too goddamn stupid for the #internet. like in general.
Thanks for the quote! In fairness, looking at some of the team comments a bit more, I also feel that this was rushed a little. A lot of folks were asking for it since bsky's #eternalseptember and this was a compromise for time. But we've needed better community tool support for a long time too.

Der Umgang ist irgendwie bei Bluesky etwas anders, als bei dem ehemaligen blauen Vogel. Und das ist gut so.
Hier hat man manchmal das Gefühl und die Hoffnung, es ist vielleicht doch noch nicht der ewige September...

Today marks 5 years since I last went into an office for work.
I left early that day (a Wednesday) because I had some kind of stomach bug and vomited. It was a $50 Lyft ride from Brickell, in Miami to the then BB&T commuter parking lot in far west Sunrise just past Sawgrass Mills.
The office […]

Seeing so many people in the "Local" feed on Pixelfed posting photos with captions like "Hello Pixelfed" or "First post" is seriously a really nice version of an Eternal September.

After a couple of years’ participation in the #fediverse, I’ve realized I can’t maintain my usual sincere and open attitude to enjoy my exchanges here.
Instead, I’ve reverted to the troll-blocking mindset I developed on #IRC in the 1990s. The #EternalSeptember that originated there continues […]
Yeah, that's pretty much it. Did a full episode on #EternalSeptember last year on the podcast based on some academic work I had done. I'm talking about Mastodon (and a little bit of Bluesky there):
