  Remember when people used to say and believe “Don’t believe everything you read on the internet?”

  I miss those days.

  I remember when the Internet was a thing people went on and/or visited/surfed, but not something you’d imagine having 247.

    I was there from the start, you must of never BBS’d or IRC’d - shit was amazing in the early days.

    I mean honestly nothing has really changed - we are still at our terminals looking at text. Only real innovation has been inline pics, videos and audio. 30+ years ago one had to click a link to see that stuff

      “must of”

      "Must have", not “must of”

      Quakenet is still going strong.

      30 years ago you couldn’t share video with just a few min and a link. YouTube was not a thing. It took until early 00’s to have shitty webcam connections.

      Now you can livestream 8k

        Oh brother the Grammar nerds are here, as if that really takes away from what I’m saying.

        In the mid and late 90’s people knew how to make videos, they didn’t link a YouTube URL but did post links to where one could find a video online, and IRC has bots that did file transfers, as well as people would use public ftp’s as file dumping grounds.

    I’m trying to get back to that. Actually close to it now than I was 5 years ago, so that’s cool

      I have a desktop and a cheap tablet. The tablet is Wi-Fi only so it’s used a bit like a laptop would be for internet access. I think this is a reasonable amount of usage. Do wish it had slightly better hardware though, struggled with web browsing because modern websites are fucking awful. Lemmy usually doesn’t crash at least. I don’t want a smartphone though. Would rather a Linux tablet but you won’t really find those cheap second hand while you can with Android.
