• Ask HN: What are your oldest "online" accounts still in use?

  Probably my Slashdot account from 1999. https://slashdot.org/~DaGoodBoy. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Apple Vision Pro Review: The Best Headset yet Is Just a Glimpse of the Future

  If anyone does not understand the reference, "Slashdot" is a link-sharing site oriented at tech news, that was popular many years ago as HN is today. https://slashdot.org. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: How can I back up an old vBulletin forum without admin access?

  It has been a VERY long time since I've done this with `wget`, but here's what I pulled out of my notes. I used to use this to mirror Slashdot when I was travelling for work and had limited/no internet: ```

    wget --ignore-length --no-remove-listing --no-check-certificate --recursive --page-requisites --span-hosts --convert-links --no-verbose --tries=3 --timeout=60 --level=1 --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0...

• There are no new social networks

  > Where is the public open chats of cyber space? It used to be every tech-savvy person had their own PhpBB instance and built small communities with that. All that has largely migrated to Discord, Reddit, Facebook Groups, and to a lesser extent: Lemmy & Mastodon. There's also quite niche and bespoke communities like Subreply[0], Tildes[1], and Raddle[2] (Built with Postmill). I prefer the Reddit style Karma system... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Lemmy.world has been hacked

  Ironically, the anarchist site that the devs used to pour scorn on, Raddle, is still going just fine. Source: 10 months ago

• Any "distressed people" have a feeling of nowhere to go?

  I would check out https://raddle.me and https://beehaw.org. Both seem to be positive and cozy spaces. They might not have all the relevant communities but it's a good start. Source: 10 months ago

• The final decision regarding DM Toolkit's future

  My apologies, I will edit the post to redirect to the site. The site is available here. Source: 10 months ago

• Anyone have recommendations for possible Reddit Alternatives for after July 1st?

  I've seen some other alternatives such as raddle where independent users are trying to recreate the Reddit experience with a new platform (yet it doesn't seem to use the same Karma System, make of that what you will) but I'm still curious to see where everyone is going if large parts of Reddit disappear after July 1st...
