@animeirl@meso I'm not close to that side of fedi so no. The fact that it was all leaked to nu-/cow/ sticks out like a sore thumb to me tho, which suggests internecine lolcow community drama more than... like... whatever Alex was proposing in his post (that it was a cum.salon-type gayop). Ultimately, if I had to wager a guess, it's someone deep in lolcow circles who had an axe to grind against the admins because of retarded eceleb drama and decided on the most spectacular revenge they could manage.
it wasnt that long, just a few months. i got high and had an existential crisis and nuked it cause too many people were posting the n word on other boards on the site and it moved to legi0n or w/e
its kinda weird. i was just extremely online and the internet was small enough that while i was never majorly involved i either knew or am 1 or 2 degrees separated from a ton of 2000/2010s internet shit
