Just read through thousands of archived alt.gothic posts as research…boy am I nostalgic.
I've always been pretty quiet as a goth where I live, focusing more on online communication than in-person due to rampant bullying, but reading all these posts, it makes me nostalgic for an era of the Internet that I had never even been a part of.
Part of me wishes that things like Convergence never died off with the COVID pandemic so I could experience it.
I have no goth friends in real life, so I've never been in a position where I would be comfortable going to goth clubs or events, but I think reading through this for a dissertation has given me the necessary confidence to start actively searching for physical spaces to attend instead of just relying on cyberspace.
I didn't really realize how lonely it is to not have any friends within a subculture I identify so strongly with.
Just some thoughts I wanted to share.

To piggyback off of the “can we stop with the am I goth posts”, can we ban those types of posts here and move them elsewhere?
I think there should be a rule blocking those type of posts here, and there should be a subreddit called something like r/newtogoth. That subreddit could be for people who are new to goth (baby bats) only, and could be for asking questions and learning.
