Started my life on IRC what…over 30 yrs ago on irc.eff.org using a crappy 300 bauds modem. Back in the days there were no ads or tracking cookies on gopher, and first websites, only good stuff…, IRC had no drama and such crap. It didn’t last for long though, when undernet came along, and more kids were getting modems for xmas, dramma and powertrips started. Sad to say this is nothing new, human nature, that’s all.
