@asakiyume@wandering.shop @janeishly@beige.party @rgammans@dice.camp I made a deal to skip the 1200 baud modem and went straight to 2400 - zoom! And I recall the cups for old-style phone microphone/earphone, on the modem attached to the teletype machine on which I played terminal games (Nim, Star Trek, etc.), and started learning BASIC. After Mastodon took off, despite its warts I thought we were all good but then people got excited about Threads? And now Bluesky? I don't get it, this here is an actually free/open network, folks!
