many people who have joined have related their extended stints on communities Reddit, Dig, Slashdot, or even older places like Usenet, and i’m super interested in what your best memories and favorite experiences on places like that have been in your time using them

  • I really wish IRC survived. I was in a small IRC community a few years ago but, once everyone got jobs, there was little activity because it’s not mobile friendly. The apps mostly suck and there’s no push notifications.

    Now we have a discord which is bridged to the mostly inactive IRC and, to be honest, I kind of hate it. We don’t own it anymore and it’s a proprietary app like the rest of them. I’d rather have a Signal group chat.
