Aywen is a French YouTuber. In December, he created the website TextBoard.fr, a clone of Your World of Text, as a social experiment, and ran it as a four-day event from December 14–18, 2024. This caused the Aywen Migration, with new users surging into Our World of Text and Your World of Text.

Discovery

TextBoard.fr was discovered on December 15, 2024, by Mr. 1052, who labeled the site "french owot". However, TextBoard.fr more accurately resembles Your World of Text.

Aywen Migration

Almost immediately after the opening of TextBoard.fr, users began surging into Your World of Text, and to a lesser extent, Our World of Text itself.

Lemuria

Lemuria led efforts to manage the new users; setting aside the /aywen world for Aywen's userbase and communicating with the French-speaking moderators using machine translation tools. Xernas was the first Aywen moderator to enter the OWOT Discord server. His statement in Aywen's Discord server that /aywen had been allocated to Aywen's userbase was the primary cause of activity

Aywen's userbase was noted by FP and Lemuria as being unusually adept at scripting; they were able to paste Braille images and large advertisements in less than an hour. The /aywen world peaked at 20 users.

In the evening of December 21, 2024[a], Lemuria was invited to speak on an event held by Xernas discussing development. As he was uncomfortable with using his voice, he instead prepared a textual statement machine-translated into French about YWOT, OWOT, and his involvement on the site.

Notes

  1. The event ran from 21:00 to around 22:30 UTC+1, while for Lemuria it was December 22, 04:00 to 05:30.
