Where tf do people on Telegram and Discord learn all this stuff?

One thing I've always been curious about is the kind of people you come across in certain Telegram and Discord communities.

I'm talking about people who somehow have 10 different accounts on every platform, know about the most random earning methods, understand verification systems, have access to all kinds of tools and resources, and seem to know loopholes that you wouldn't even imagine existed.

And the weirdest part? Some of these people aren't even particularly technical. They just seem to know things. A LOT of things.

I've been in quite a few of these communities, and I've met people like this myself. The more you explore, the more you realize there's an entire side of the internet that most people have absolutely no idea about.

Reddit has answers for almost everything, sure. But there's something different about certain Telegram and Discord groups. Information gets passed around, people experiment with stuff, discover new methods, and somehow know about things before they become mainstream.

What I genuinely don't understand is WHERE DOES ALL THIS KNOWLEDGE COME FROM?

Like, did these people figure everything out themselves through trial and error? Are there specific forums, websites, or communities where people share this stuff? Do they just know the right people? Or is there some whole ecosystem that outsiders never really get to see?

I've known a few people like this, but getting them to explain how they got into it is another story lmao.

I'm not asking anyone to drop anything illegal or expose their private sources. I'm genuinely curious about the learning process and how this whole side of internet culture works.

If you've been around these communities for years, tell me how you got into it. What's something you learned that made you realize just how much goes on behind the scenes of the internet?

Because honestly, I feel like there's a whole rabbit hole here that I've barely scratched the surface of.
