@paculino@tech.lgbt Really, for me, it's just the way the Internet was much more of a community than it is today. And hardware was fun. I'm a very old-school Linux guy and I actually miss the days of spending hours trying to get something to work. I miss blogs. I miss IRC. I miss Gopher. Those were fun times.

@chadmccullough@mastodon.bsd.cafe @paculino@tech.lgbt I didn't catch much in those days, too busy with Windows and video games... To be honest, I don't feel nostalgic, all this small web/frugal/offpunk computing is actually forward-thinking in my book. Emacs is 50 years old now and yet it's timelessly futuristic. Static sites, Gopher, Gemini all look very cool now if you ask me.
