This place was really special.<br /> <br /> As William said, my mental health has been in a slow decline for a long time. Nothing new, still just the anxiety, panic and resultant agoraphobia. A couple of years back, though, my mum died and that sent it all off a cliff. Had a very rough couple of years. I'm levelling out again now though and that's *good*.<br /> <br /> I'm still doing the same old stuff - chatting online, playing games, watching and reading stuff.<br /> <br /> I think of the people from here frequently. You all had a huge, formative, impact on me and mean more to me than I can express. It was an amazing place to 'grow up' online, we were all incredibly lucky to have experienced it.<br /> <br /> It also kinda ruined me for the modern web. Everything is so *disappointing* in comparison.<br /> <br /> I do seek out places which capture some of those old internet vibes. I messed around with <a href="https://geminiprotocol.net/">Gemini</a> for a bit and I'm on <a href="https://mstdn.social/@uoou">Mastodon</a> (and sporadically active - let's be friends if you're over there!). I've avoided the Facebooks and the Twitters and whatnot.<br /> <br /> Spending most of my time when I'm not in voice chats watching/reading lefty political stuff and wondering whether, in the upcoming election, I'm going to not bother voting or cast a pointless vote for the Greens.<br /> <br /> <span class="emoticon e_hug" title="(hug)"><span class="e__">(hug)</span></span><br /> <br /> </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=42943.118&return_msg=42943.112" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="42943.118"> <span class="rating">+2/2</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a42943_119"></a><div class="message" id="message_42943_119"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: Drew (X3N0PH0N)<span class="message_time"> 9 May 18:36</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: Monsoir (PILOTDAN) <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 10 May 12:10"></span></span> <span class="message_count">119 of 139</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42943.119">42943.119</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42943.51">42943.51</a></div> <div class="message_body"> <div class="quotetext"><strong>Quote:</strong> </div> <div class="quote">I love how many people clearly poke their head in fairly often - just on the off chance the web has reverted 20 years.</div> <br /> <br /> Lovely way to put it.
