  🌸TILLI🌸 @ FFXIV (ARR) (@kthxsayonara) reported 9 minutes ago from Saint Mary Hoo, England

  AOL have deleted more than half of the saved emails in my inbox and now I’ve lost the email containing the serial codes for Eleanor Forte AI, Synth V Studio Pro and Natsuki Karin AI. I’ve managed to send an email to Anicute but AHS want a support number (was in a deleted email…)

  @aolmail assume the email telling me my request to terminate my AOL account; which of course I did not, will be carried out in 3 working days, is obviously a scam email? Many thanks in advance xx

  @anildash I can remember Microsoft trying to launch their own network to compete with the internet or so it seemed, I joined got an account then had to wait about an hour, via dialup, to cancel it, back to AOL it was for me.

  @AOLSupportHelp I need help to access my email it’s saying the password or account isn’t correct but I can not access my recovery email address either. I’m being sent in a circle

  @theretrobyte I think I would still have been with Dungeon/FlexNet back then. Never used any of the likes of AOL, Freeserve, etc.

  @BekoUK I bought a Beko VCS5125AR Upright Vacuum Cleaner in Red from AOL 27/2/21 and in the past week it has cut out after using it for 10mins and did not restart for 20mins. Not happy. I would like it swapped for a hoover that works competently for the use it was bought for!

  Sheila Howze-Jones (@ChynaStormWx) reported 5 minutes ago

  @Soaringeagle45 I got 15 points due to the fact that I never used a fax machine, got a AOL account, dial up internet, nor used a checkbook until college my grandfather was the only person sleeps on a waterbed

  @JeffJSays in 1997 i had our old clunker computer hidden in my closet with extension cord under the carpet around the bed to power so i could chat with friends on AOL dialup and play roller coaster tycoon after folks went to bed, never got caught. these kids got it easy

  This is exactly the kind of infrastructure-level integration that proves we’re past the build phase 👀 Ripple successfully tested as a blockchain enhancer for the SWIFT network (Hyperledger + ISO 20022) back in June 2025, and now it’s moving toward actual integration. Remember when the internet went from heavy build-out to mass adoption in 1998? I was an AOL shareholder and worked at UUNET selling the pipes. The parallels with XRP and the Internet of Value today are identical — regulatory clarity + real infrastructure hooks = adoption phase. We’re entering the Green Zone. 🍻

  @lilhousgreendor 18. Never had an AOL address. What is a paper mat?

  Hey @AOL You want to charge $70 to get back someone's account that has been hacked. And you're customer service is horrendous as well.

  @PrairieVeteran @MarkJCarney He's got ****-all deals anywhere. Oh wait, we got 10 months of Canola to China in exchange for them being able to sell EVs in Canada for 5 YEARS. He couldn't negotiate a free AOL CD.

  @goingforbrooke but when everyone in the US had aim (bc aol was so popular as an isp), everyone in europe + latam had msn messenger (because hotmail was so popular as free email with free storage, when your isp email had no storage and would change if you changed isps). so also network effects.

  @hzrnvm I am actually aware of this because there's a shocking amount of British pensioners who still have AOL email addresses and occasionally I need to help them set them up at work

  @DougWahl1 When I worked at AOL in Northern VA, that had that. I thought it was fair. Support.

  @zedamex @el_mesa @RinoTheBouncer That still requires players to have a strong enough internet connection to do these things. What do you propose people in rural areas with poor or zero home internet access should do? AOL shut down back in Sept 2025 which was one of the few options rural families rely on.
