My Microsoft login is still a Hotmail account, and I still use my same eBay account from way back then too. There's also a forum I've been a part of since I was a kid, and I'm nearly 40 now.
My favorite account I used to have was username@ibm.net, back when they dabbled in consumer ISPs (unlimited dialup!). Sadly, they discontinued that service after a while.
I used to have really old Steam, Amazon, Slashdot, Facebook, and reddit accounts too, but deleted them all for various reasons.
- Spare_account 3y agoIn case you're interested in finding out the exact age of your Microsoft account: A few years ago I opened a support ticket with Microsoft about how old my account was and they were able to tell me the date my account was created. In my case, it was 22nd June 1998.

- solardev 3y agoSorry for the late reply, I was sick and on a HN break! https://boards.straightdope.com/ https://boards.straightdope.com/ is the forum... it's not tech-focused, but it has a bunch of smart, passionate people discussing everything from airplanes to history to pop culture to video games and more. Usually pretty high quality discussions, although admittedly I've been a lot less active there than I used to be.
