I do. It was fun. There was a real sense of community. Where you'd ask advice on IRC on some mining setup, and people would gladly help you tune some settings on your build-in GPU. When, after a full day of mining, I was like "meh, this'll make at most one BTC per day, no way that I'm going to let my computer blast the whole night just for one Bitcoin. Where you knew nicknames and trusted people (and their advice, software, scripts based on "knowing them from IRC")
One thing I've noticed when moving more into the Eth community (I'm developing solidity stuff now) is that Eth is both a friendlier, more helpful community, and feels like a more closed set.
Btc feels all about in-fighting these days. No matter what reddit you visit, there is fighting, not heated debates, but actual, real hate. Eth feels more as a whole group. We -vs- them kinda thing. As opposed to the Bitcoin us-vs-us.
