Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Maybe it's a sign that it's time to go outside and touch grass.
Internet has peaked and is now in decline. Glad I got to experience its golden age.
At least we got the OG black vault, hamsterdance,irc, and a full set of fan pages for everything out there
I miss the late 90s
Is everyone still using freenode? Or are there other irc servers now
Yup. Definitely. But it still has its reach. I like going for bike rides and listening to audio books. Good luck doing that without being tracked all over. I mean you can, but so much less convenient.
