Retro Communities

The place to discuss "Retro Communities" like BBS, Fido-Net, Metrolink, Doors games and old forums/technology and even ANSI art.

“Retro Communities” is not just about old technologies, it’s also about the “feel” of those older communities. Text walls are allowed, asking questions is encouraged. Making a mistake is not a tragedy. You are welcome here!

In the spirit of older small community sharing. If you’re uncertain, nervous, or curious about posting, just drop a reply in here. Doesn’t matter if it’s a hello world, test or an attempt to see formatting of text (maybe even ansi art). Just pop in and try it or leave your mark and go back to lurking. It’s all good stuff!

My first comment on Lemmy as well. Still trying to wrap my head around the servers and how to curate the content I see. Thanks for this.
