Sixteen years ago tomorrow I published the first post on the fediverse. https://web.archive.org/web/20080618164355/http://identi.ca/notice/1 It's still visible on Identi.ca today, although the URL format changed a few years ago, and the redirect plugin stopped working a few years after that. https://identi.ca/evan/note/Y0QwGyc1QYilqqawkDrQlg Thanks to everyone who made identi.ca a great place to be, and thanks to everyone who's expanded the fediverse since then. #Fediverse16

    This has been going on for 16 years? I thought it was started in the mid or late 2010s.

    At least hardly anyone on Lemmy believes the Fediverse was invented by Eugen Rochko in 2022 as a reaction upon Elon Musk’s announcement to buy Twitter.
