It’s good to have it back.

Old school.

Cool

Same. But better

Definitely, I sometimes wonder if users' paths have crossed before for some of the og users of irc/icq in the mid 90s. Some of us may have interacted unknowingly nearly 30 years ago and now are meeting again without knowing it.

Probably! I have little recollection of the users I met back then. I don’t even remember my previous goto usernames.

Same. I only remember that they were crazy, chaotic times back then on those protocols and a lot of fun.

💯

Both had great logos/icons, and noises

True.

People used to buy and sell ICQ numbers.

Wonder if this will happen with npubs 😅

Npubs with lots of followers will be valuable

Oh for sure. 👍

Hmmm 🤔 it’s probably worth investing in multiple npubs…

Pinging, fingering, switching servers ......all good times!

Eggdrop

was that the internet's 1st assistant bot?

ah yes, I remember the good old days

Uh oh

The good old dial-up days…

“Uh-Oh!” (High pitched)

Oh... yes!

We need a nostalgic purple flower.
