  @AllanNate @calebfurst @HoodieCarsen Damn that’s actually pretty funny, I totally forgot about that site. I remember reading it back in the AOL days lol

  @CincinnatiPhil If it was in the alt.* hierarchy it was a real crapshoot, but this was before “Eternal September’ (when AOL went on the Internet) so it exceeded FBook on its worst day. Tim Berniers-Lee & Marc Anderson both made their initial announcements on Usenet.

  @LambertJan42 @EBischoff They beat Raw for more than 100 weeks total. WCW didn’t go bankrupt. It was sold effectively for that amount to WWE because AOL-TW decided to end TV for wrestling killing its value. There was some bad TV in 99-01 but no matter what AOL was ending it.

  @ShannonD10 @angelgirl1976 Sorry. I actually have six. I have one which isn’t on my phone and I never log into. I give it when an email address and I don’t want their emails. AOL probably hates me.

  @StevieFromAbove @EBischoff That had zero to do with the programming decision by Kellner. He didn’t care about the number of eyeballs. He wanted different eyeballs based on his perception. Also had the Fusient deal went through AOL-TW would have cut out a huge expense while keeping programming on.

  AOL had 30M users, and the internet locked down. Then the open web ate it. Anthropic and OpenAI are playing AOL right now. The Fable 5 rug pull just showed every enterprise exactly what it looks like to depend on closed AI. The off switch exists. Someone else holds it. Llama, Mistral, Qwen - they're not "almost as good" anymore. For most enterprise workloads, they're good enough. And they run on your own hardware. Apple MLX + NVIDIA RTX Spark laptops + rapidly improving open weights = the mainframe-to-PC transition, happening in real time. Open-source AI will do to Frontier Labs what the open internet did to AOL. History doesn't always repeat itself, but it certainly rhymes. The only question is how long you keep building on someone else's infrastructure before you start owning yours.

  I think David Zaslav will go down in media history, with Steve Case, as the two greatest salesmen to ever rip off clueless suitors. Case convinced Time Warner/Gerald Levin that AOL was far more valuable than it was, and Zaslav sold Warner Brothers Discovery for a ruinous price.

  Does @AOL intentionally block users of over 30 years not to be able to update list or contact so they sign up for paid service? I cannot update contact, edit contact, edit list

  As someone who experienced AOL chatrooms at 12 years old, I get that there should be restrictions and oversight. But I can’t help but feel like maybe there’s better ways to go about it than ID laws or outright bans that don’t consider whether or not a site is 100% adult-oriented.

  @lady_valor_07 @Yahoo @MSN I bought my first computer around 1987-88. Best Buy signed me up with AOL. I had the computer maybe 3-6 months. AOL flagged me saying they could not provide me service because my Computer wasn't fast enough or big enough to use their service. I knew absolutely nothing about comp.

  This is true. I have officially built a bulk mail server for just me that functions 100% like constant contact or mail chimp in every possible way that I have been able to detect, using AI. It cost me less than $100 to build it. It costs only 10 cents for every 1000 emails I send. Every email service (aol, hotmail, yahoo, Microsoft, gmail) recognizes it as a legit service. It’s called KennyBMail I log in to my dashboard which I can design however I want. It has one user and one account. Me and mine. I can do drip campaigns, single emails, weekly newsletters and whatever else you can think of. It uses all the structure blocks, tests, formats, resends, click and open trackers, reports. Everything. You name it this service does it. My gated content has put over 650 new emails into it in 3 weeks while I sleep. For a small YouTube channel that has given me an entirely new way to reach people in my audience. AI knows every language. Every human language and every coding language in every human language. It knows how everything in the domain of coding and programming works. Everything. It’s not perfect but it works. It would have cost me tens of thousands of dollars to have a company build this. I built it with AI in 9 days during down time. If you know how to tell it what to do (not everyone does) - then if you can think it, you can build it. I know nothing about building this kind of stuff and still did it because I know how to articulate what I want it to do and how to tell it when something isn’t right.

  @NikkiLimo IRC was around before AOL IM and it’s still around today. Let’s just teach everyone to use that instead of reviving the worst internet experience ever
