Although I progressed from my childhood into my teens in the 90s, l don’t retain much memory of the internet back then as l had no exposure to it.

    On Discord I always get more DMs around certain times of year, I think it’s from college kids getting on there for the first time and not knowing the general etiquette. Or thinking you need to send a friend request to someone before talking to them. Interesting how some patterns return.

        You’re not missing too much. There’s sort of a set of customs most servers have as well that are counter intuitive to new users. What’s frustrating is that most mods are so used to them that they forget how unobvious they are.
