Haven't actually seen a lot of weird stuff yet, let's bring on the weird stuff

The Fediverse: either leave now or stay and get weird! lol

I've been down the depths of the weirdest parts of the fediverse, and as someone who was on the internet in the 90s: it's tame af. Just like the whole internet nowadays.

Just for some context, uncensored pictures of decapitated children used to show up on the front page of reddit and that wasn't even "the weird part" of the internet.

I'll start with a mild one: https://youtu.be/6QFwo57WKwg

Booooo, it's age restricted and I never managed to age-verify my youtube account.

Age verify? You just give an 18+ date of birth when you make the account

I turned 123 years just about half a year ago for most sites I've registered to.

This assumes you actually want to sign into a google service. I prefer a violentmonkey script to bypass age verification

That should be your answer. The Fediverse is just as sanitized as the rest of the modern internet. Weirdness is not tolerated.

thanks for sharing this, music was a vibe, animation was bizarre but i liked it

i have no idea how but when i read your description i knew exactly what song was linked

Weird video but that song was a banger. Has an M83/Gunship sound to it. Love it!
