  They want to go back to the internet being a bunch of walled gardens like in the AOL days. You can see it with the slow introduction of paid tiers and needing ID for social media apps. But unlike the AOL days people are used to having unfettered access.

  @johnarnold It’s hard when so much of people’s lives is documented online. I don’t condone it. I remember some of the stupid things I wrote on AOL Instant Messenger as a kid and people would say in gaming chatrooms. Can’t even next gen since everything is cached and searchable now.

  To be clear, I would never, EVER, DM anyone. Not on Twitter/X, not on Discord, hell, not even on AOL Instant Messenger. Even replying to people if they message me ties my nerves into knots. But when they do, no matter what the reason or situation, I appreciate it. So thank you.

  @LuchaConMacho i watched WWE since 1997, take this fake "passionate" crap and go back to MYSPACE or AOL, if you are a wrestling podcaster then you talk about everything wrestling, not sitting on social media and talking about 2 wrestlers that make you look relevant @LuchaConMacho

  @hthieblot I loved AOL. I was like 11-12 and spent hours curating my AIM profile and/or arguing about this or that in chats & forums. I remember obsessing over defending this awful movie, "Simply Irresistible", for days.

  @exQUIZitely Memory’s, played this multiplayer on the internet back in the early 90’s. Sierra network/ImagiNation network. My poor parents, I sure that phone will insane, I spent days on INN. The UI was incredible. Sad, AOL killed it for a reason. Change the 🌎 Ready gamer one 💩.

  @DavidWolfe I was always skeptical of the moon landing. I started down the rabbit hole in the very early days of the internet. I had a dial up modem, and accessed the net via an aol cd

  @allie__voss I once told a woman that was she "tiresome" because she would always IM me on AOL but would never actually contribute to the conversation herself; I was expected to entertain her The record shows that she dumped me, but when you call one "tiresome" you are telling her to do so

  @djvlad You need to stop tricking and announcing it. Paying for free **** is ain't a flex, plus AOL opened the floodgates in the 90s
