@rey i saw you talkin about fidonet, which i'm not 100% certain i can describe accurately (i can't) but it reminded me a piece of software i used to use to read BBS email, called Blue Wave, and i think that was via fidonet too. blast from the past!
@rey@alyx I had my own BBS back then. It never got very popular, because the Internet was already lurking and BBS's were losing their popularity when I opened it. But those pre-Internet years defined so much of my relationship with technology and online communication.
@alyx heeee, awesome. i love retro shit like that. brings back so much memory. i remember binkleyterm and maximus and squish and... umm... phew, which QWK reader did i use...
@alyx @rey Oh dear, BlueWave and BBS! Those were the times. ❤
