Can we just like, build a new protocol for an alternative web? Maybe something that's way easier/more accessible to create sites for? Cause it's starting to look like http is an evolutionary dead end since it got taken over by megacorps
Idk maybe we should just go back to BBSes
@eniko I've seen a few people doing this! My technical know how isn't there yet, but I'd love to learn how to do it too.
@eniko been enjoying reading the .plan on @vga256 's https://tomo.city 😁
@britown @eniko @vga256 It’s quite the exciting little project too :)

"Go back?" Missy, some of us never LEFT.

@eniko
I just brought my gane design blog back to life!
@eniko yeah. bbs, anonymous telnet, irc...
@eniko no joke, the one BBS Im in is my favorite social media by far, even above Cohost
@eniko have you seen neocities? It's not the same, but it seems kinda cute

@eniko I've legit not stopped testing (for accessibility) under lynx. That may or may not have been my first "web browser" on a green-screen WYSE terminal hooked up to a BSD serial hydra / port replicator host. (Along with PINE for e-mail and Usenet…)

BBSes were great; there's something inherently more personal about hearing that V.90 establishment handshake.
