I've gone to ultimate-guitar since the early 2000s. Some of my tabs are still on there. Visiting it today is a god-damn tragedy. What a mess of a site. I'll definitely be trying this.
- lhnz 3y agoYes, it's very sad to see work you provided for free to a community used to exploit these people.
- gspencley 3y agoSame. I made many online friends on the forum and it used to be my e-hangout in the early to mid 00s. I fondly remember the IRC channel we used to hang out in. I think I have a tab or two published on the site as well. Every time I pop back in for a visit these past few years it always pushes me back away.
- marricks 3y agoThe only things from that era that didn’t get outright worse stayed the same (Craigslist). What was beautiful about the internet then was there were so many corners were monetization either wasn’t easy or wasn’t chased so things could just exist. Not so anymore!
- FredPret 3y agoSites need to monetize because how else will they pay for Amazon ElasticLambda to serve their users’ click X-Y coordinates to T5 FireAnt, their distributed backend, on a planetary scale?
- whoisthemachine 3y agoYou have forgotten Bonzi Buddy.
- berniedurfee 3y agoCraigslist needs to be added to the list of national historical sites and should _never ever_ be allowed to change.
- MSFT_Edging 3y agoThey've made small, thought out changes over the years that improved things. Small things like better gallery image handling and some filtering. As long as they maintain that pace, I'm fine with some changes.
- lamp_book 3y agoRest in peace, mxtabs. I guess the upside to UG is that it encouraged me to learn by ear.
