Мне кажется сейчас (нынешнему поколению) уже не понять того фана и экспиринса, хехе, который был в те времена. С появлением интернета, социальных сетей и мессенджеров, с появлением огромных скоростей обмена сообщениями, с удобными устройствами для доступа к средствам общения - всё это полностью затмило собой общение посредством Fidonet и BBS. Даже чаты, которые также появились с приходом интернета еще до социальных сетей и мессенджеров стали неактуальны и неудобны. Согласен, что это суть прогресса - на смену медленным скоростям через модем и dial-up пришли оптические магистрали, медные ethernet последние мили и мобильные сети. Появились удобные средства общения в виде мессенджеров. Люди стали находиться онлайн на связи круглосуточно. Ты точно знаешь, что твое сообщение будет просмотрено в ближайшие минуты или секунды. А ведь когда-то ты мог дожидаться ответа часами и днями. Когда ты неистово жал на пробел в мейлере, чтобы сбросить модем и набирать номер твоего вышестоящего узла в Fidonet или знакомой BBS снова и снова. Когда ты на слух мог определять скорость подключения твоего модема. Когда ты, задавая вопрос по любой тебе незнакомой или малознакомой теме в фидошной эхе или даже интернет чате, точно знал, что тебе ответят и даже помогут решить вопрос в той или иной степени благодаря энтузиазму, а не как сейчас скажут, что ты не компетентен и обращайся к специалисту или сразу предложат решить вопрос за деньги. Времена уже не те. Я конечно не страдаю от этого, но иногда ностальгия мучает. Сейчас все решают деньги. Раньше подключение к Fidonet или BBS кроме приобретения модема более никаких денежных затрат не требовало. Но обычно, чтобы узнать номер популярной BBS или попроситься подключиться к Fido требовало поощрения владельцу такого узла: соки, воды, пиво, водка )) Sorry for Russian, thats my IMHO. If needed, i will translate. PS:by the way I'm still an member of Fidonet and my node since 29 Dec 1995 and continues to work

ok, google translated: It seems to me now (the current generation) no longer understand that fan and experience, hehe, that was in those days. With the advent of the Internet, social networks and instant messengers, with the advent of huge messaging speeds, with convenient devices for accessing communication tools, all this has completely overshadowed communication via Fidonet and BBS. Even chats, which also appeared with the advent of the Internet, even before social networks and instant messengers, have become irrelevant and inconvenient. I agree that this is the essence of progress - slow speeds through modem and dial-up have been replaced by optical backbones, copper ethernet last miles and mobile networks. Convenient means of communication appeared in the form of instant messengers. People began to be online around the clock. You know for sure that your message will be viewed in the next minutes or seconds. But once you could wait for an answer for hours and days. When you furiously hit the space in your mailer to reset your modem and dial your upstream Fidonet or familiar BBS number over and over again. When you could determine the connection speed of your modem by ear. When you, asking a question on any unfamiliar or unfamiliar topic in a fidosh echo or even an Internet chat, knew for sure that they would answer you and even help to resolve the issue to one degree or another thanks to enthusiasm, and not as they say now that you are not competent and contact a specialist or they will immediately offer to solve the issue for money. Times are not the same. I certainly do not suffer from this, but sometimes nostalgia torments. Now everything is decided by money. Previously, connecting to Fidonet or BBS, in addition to purchasing a modem, did not require any more money. But usually, to find out the number of a popular BBS or ask to connect to Fido, it was necessary to encourage the owner of such a site: juices, water, beer, vodka))
