This is what I really miss about Twitter. Da Share z0ne, Good Tweet Man, Riker Googling, the Transport for London parody account. Weird Twitter is best Twitter.
- neonsunset 3y agoDa Share z0ne went into permanent merch ads and posting politically aligned tweets. Not missed.
- NoZebra120vClip 3y agoI didn't enjoy their content anyway, it was not my style. But I mentioned them because of how notable and transgressive they were. Their Wikipedia article mentions some stumping for Bernie Sanders and there's a whole section on the TCG decks they produced. So I guess that's where the merch ads are.
- dbcooper 3y agoIt was a group account, and then one guy locked everybody else out, and started going heavy on merch and cringe.
- neonsunset 3y agoI had no idea, this is very unfortunate, the "just walk out" post is widely loved and the reason many subscribed to the account...well, sad that it turned up that way.
- panic 3y agoAt least a couple of these accounts are on Mastodon now: https://mas.to/@dasharez0ne https://mas.to/@dasharez0ne https://botsin.space/@RikerGoogling https://botsin.space/@RikerGoogling
- heavyset_go 3y agoFYAD still exists.
- intothemild 3y agoAs someone who's been on SA for longer than I wish to say... SA itself is dead, it's not the same place, the same kind of shitposting and gimmick posting that made the website unique, is now something that will get you mass reported and driven out as well as banned. It's a interesting case story of newer people joining, and not getting the underlying joke that made it so good in the first place... Much like how a couple people in the replies here don't get why dril is funny. Or what weird twitter is.
