Actually even further than that, even back in the 80s it was apparently used in certain subcultures to distinguish (drug) “addicts” from “normal people”.
The original meaning of the word as I first heard it back in the late 1990s was to refer to the vast majority of “normal” people who don’t have an interest in or deep understanding of technology and internet culture.
I don’t think it was originally meant as an insult, but more as an acknowledgement and reminder to ourselves that the things we were into and cared about were a niche thing and not exactly the norm.
Nowadays, I’ve heard it applied to just about any niche interest or hobby, for example: people who are not into mechanical keyboards would also be “normies”, and worse it’s being thrown around as a direct insult to people, in the same vein as calling someone “basic”.

I unsubbed from most of the default reddit subs and from the subs where the mods didn’t seem to care about the protest.
For the future, I intend to limit my engagement to a few subreddits related to the war in Ukraine, because that’s something I follow closely and care about a lot. The communities on lemmy/kbin just aren’t active enough yet to stay up to date.
