the big stickied thread is getting cluttered with lots of new people and the “how was your week” thread isn’t a great fit for introductions, so it seems about time to make this a dedicated thread of its own so peoples’ posts aren’t getting lost.

tell us a little bit about yourself, folks. don’t gotta be too specific or revealing, just whatever you want to put out there. this’ll be a good way of getting to know all the people you’re now on here with

    Hello everyone! Long time reddit lurker here coming in to check out this new part of the internet. Currently in university for CS and love technology, computer hardware, tennis, videogames, and more recently cars.

    Really like the idea of these smaller, more tight nit communities that exist on their own. Excited to see where this goes.

      It has a feeling of the ‘older’ internet, doesn’t it?!

      I collect some older 486’s myself, since I’m more of a hardware fan than software (if that makes sense!). Have you seen Halt and Catch Fire? If you’re a fan of computers, their history, the builds and all that, the series if 100% worth your time!

        It does capture that ‘wild west’ feeling a little bit. I have not seen that series but it looks very interesting! I’ll have to give it a watch.
