Just watched an old documentary on the history of BBS. Quite interesting. It's linked here gemini://gemini.spam.works/mirrors/shadowwolf/shadowwolfissue1.gmi

@lykso @smokey re: cozy What I picked up was the same story - like-minded people get swamped out by increasingly normie types. But those guys, building computers from kits in the 70s, six months to build, no stackoverflow, no protocol analysers. We're all normies to them! · 10 months ago
I loved that series! Watched it a few years ago for the first time. Probably about time for a re-watch. BBSes seem like they were such relatively cozy places. · 10 months ago
