Weebs are just a subgroup of nerds. And every group of people mentioned in this comment section(gamers, furries, ecc.), too. Nerds are the natives of the Internet. Stop fighting each other.

Gamers are the true indigenous people.

We were typing in games printed in magazines and hand written from friends.

It’s trekkies actually. Weebs were mostly an off-internet phenomenon until the early 2000s.

Underwaterbob ,

Haha! So true. The first video I ever downloaded was a fansubbed Cowboy Bebop episode sometime around 2000.

This just makes Trekkies the Africa to the Weebs’ Glorious Nippon.

How about you just don’t make this kind of analogy in the year 2024?

I know shitpost and all. But the people pointing to the furries are right. At least in terms of online culture.

Furries were creeping the shit out of normal people online since the internets dawn. They existed long before the weeb culture even became a thing.

Really wish neither of them existed in the first place, tho.

As someone who grew up on dialup, and professionally works in IT/networking…

No.

Just no.

The natives of the internet are not weebs.

Yeah, it’s furries

Brocon ,

Nope. Furries are a really recent phenomenon.

@Fal@yiffit.net avatar

What? Not in terms of the history of the internet

Jomega ,

We’ve existed since the 80’s. The only thing recent about us is the population boom the internet gave us.

Brocon ,

But the broader visibility out of the niches is a more recent phenomenon. I’m around the net since the early bulletin boards thanks to my really forward looking parents. And jeah. I’ve seen shit early on. But furries are something that I’ve first encountered in their recent form in the late 2000s early 2010s. Andnthat was about 20 years after the first acoustic coupler sounds rang through my parents living room. And I sure as hell didn’t shy away from all the places where they could have been encountered.

this is news to all of us greymuzzles with multiple decades invested in the fandom

The natives of the internet are mainly coders from universities, they were the first ones online and they built the protocols we use to communicate. Their code is still in use. They wrote the RFC’s that govern everything.

One of my favorites is RFC 1925.

The natives of the internet are mainly coders from universities,

So in other words… Furries.

Anime mfs took it from the nerds. This is weebwashing
