I didn’t change my default Damus pfp for soooo long 💀

Dude it was suuuch a pain

What year is this?

Do you know what year this was?? 😂

probably mid to late 1980s

CompuServe was a blast, especially if you had a 2400 baud modem.

Reminds me of the old BBS days. Ran up a huge phone bill calling out of state. my parents were F'ing pissed 😅

Oh, 1992, how I've missed you.

Still struggled a bit with media uploads when I first joined not long ago, but nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg premium fixed that for me. It’s not the experience people expect when they come from traditional social media where everything is easy for free…

Then: no one uses email to communicate.

Now: no one uses bitcoin to transact.

We never learn.

Clearly nobody will use those electronic letters. Way too hard for use. They will fail

Looking back at my parent's old PCWorld magazines is a trip.

Make the Internet weird again!

nothing like the 9 digit compuserve ID

This is such a flash back... especially "no faster than 2400 baud". and remember the squeal!!
