State of the Union 2022

I'm one of the new folks (previously a lurker) from 2021. I will be sticking around for as long as this site exists, because it's the only place I can express some of my opinions. Plus I've always been a fan of internet drama as long as I wasn't directly involved in it, and y'all are saner and smarter than any other drama community I've ever been in. Kiwis are an exceptional bunch, and for once I don't mean retarded!

Null, I appreciate all you do for this site. I've been pretty adamantly against nfts, but that Kiwi is pretty cute and I do want to support the site.

Happy new year frens. May 2022 not suck quite as bad; oh, and watch out for Soylent Green. That happens this year.

The internet is no longer fun anymore. It used to feel like the Wild West — even up until like 2007/2008. Then, shit changed. People started doing things online for attention (see: posting publicly to social media instead of anonymous forums; less emphasis on sharing interesting or creative content vs. viral and marketable content). The anonymity faded. The censorship and groupthink started. Honestly, as an Old Millennial, I now find the internet to be mostly a boring, vapid pile of shit.

This place is a rare exception. It feels like Vintage Internet.

I may disagree with a lot of shit posted here, but it’s nice we are all United under the umbrella of “I want to laugh at dumb people who overshare online.” It’s funny how often this place is written off as an Evil Right Wing Nazi Clubhouse, when there’s an extreme diversity of political opinions, male/female posters, race/ethnicity of posters, citizenship of posters etc.

Tl;dr KF good.

Social media ruined the internet. It got normies interested in using it where before that it was just a place for loosers and weirdos to congregate.

Makes me wonder what the next big thing will be.

Happy new year @Null

You've probably had this question many times but is there anyway other way than using the Bat browser to send you money? I also know you've had problems with PayPal. What about sending you money directly or will your bank shut that shit down? (You also probably don't want your bank details out there...)

The e-mail address leak was a harsh lesson learned for me. I've since changed the one I use for KF to a Protonmail burner account. Unfortunately, the original one is also sitting on those info aggregate sites, and if anyone ever figured out which one they could link my real name to 600+ posts here about disdain for tranny lolcows. There goes a potential future brand. Be careful, people.

This isn't the thread for it, but you can do some work to scrub most of those sites. Worth looking into.

I'm sorta in the "best way give money" boat too, this thread covers most of it. https://kiwifarms.ru/threads/supporting-the-forum.27022/

Oh! An NFT Kiwi with Chantel’s filthy hair topper smoking a pre roll would be cool. Or a Russ Greer Kiwi complete with drool and keytar. I see potential.

Happy New Year to Null and all Kiwis. I hope this year is easier and funnier for all.

I'm very interested to see if the request for us to switch to Brave is going to manifest into an appreciable amount of money for you. It's too soon
to know, but I changed every fucking thing to Brave on every device, and if my autistic ass broke down and did it, I bet most everybody did. For
anyone who hasn't, it's been more than a month, and I'm honestly enjoying the change. Considerably less ad interference, and faster. Get it done,
you won't regret it.

Don't be a cunt. I too long for that day, but we must support the structure to receive the prize.

Oh god please stop with the NFT shit. I can't believe it has taken a hold of Josh. Somebody pass me the rope.

If one of the reasons you are for integrating something in such a big way is: "This guy made alot of money from it, therefore I can." [See reason 2], you need to wake up and pull your head in.

It's just something fun to try and see what happens. I'm not betting the farm on it.
