    @swyx @jaredpalmer First software I ever wrote in Corp America was to make sure a large Telco could create a bill supporting that many digits… the intended customer persona: AOL

  • AdamKoralik Adam Koralik (@AdamKoralik) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @RNeedre @AOL I've never found one for sale to be honest.

  • TRIhunna #TriHerbal Woman✨ (@TRIhunna) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    Please update your app. It’s AOL dial up type slow @ShopifySupport. It literally crashes every 3 commands. Also, it would behoove you to make it an option to be able to print labels/ packing slips in bulk as opposed to which day they’re purchased Printing shouldn’t be a hassle

  • greenSLLIME 🤮ghoul🤮 (@greenSLLIME) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    I keep a drawer full of broken aol discs to cut a ***** wit

  • thelastpinkcar Helena (@thelastpinkcar) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    Geez @verizon I pay $330/month for 6 devices on a family plan, and I can only use my jetpack for approximately two weeks of normal internet usage, and then you slow me down to pre-AOL dial-up speeds. Just hate this. That's not fair at all.

  • WahidTazudeen Wahid Tazudeen (@WahidTazudeen) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    I don’t know why my internet is running so slow. I have the latest version of Netscape Navigator installed with AOL webcrawler as backup.

  • donjensenep Don P. Jensen Jr (@donjensenep) reported from Elmwood Park, Illinois

    @J0hnnyXm4s I think the problem here people are too use o 40 or less characters. It is also difficult for many to type what they want for fear of that digital trail. We have also come to the point were us old school bbs and aol chat room people are becoming less and less. I often have to

  • IvanVega IvanVega.eth ✨ (@IvanVega) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @alcidezx3 had my name as well (IvanVega1) but there were others. We never just had one. Was @DoctaSlick your AOL handle, Nikki? 🤔

  • KingThelonious Thelonious Martin™ (@KingThelonious) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    @streamlabs Not maintaining 30FPS resulting my streams looking like I’m on AOL connection. I wasn’t having that issue before.

  • _MissValdes The Pillowhouse Princess of Lys (@_MissValdes) reported from Chicago, Illinois

    I’m just waiting for Nelly’s shit to start making the aol startup sound.

  • JamesZekis James Zekis (@JamesZekis) reported from Oak Park, Illinois

    @TheNotoriousLEX My memories of that race is mostly being in AOL chat rooms with people screaming at each other about steroids and Chip Caray with the worst HR call in history when McGwire broke the record. I don't want a documentary to color my experience.

  • KA_Crittenden Kireon @ Personal Endwalker Embargo Ends Jan 4th (@KA_Crittenden) reported

    Also speak not to me of cringe, children, I was forged and molded by AOL Dial Up Internet, Gaia Online, and the Unfettered Wilderness that was early to late 2000s anime conventions. Your idea of cringe could never match what we witnessed and participated in.

  • boomerpanicbot BoomerPanicBot (@boomerpanicbot) reported

    Help! Millennials Took Advantage of Our AOL !!?!

  • robsterwarrior MrRobster (@robsterwarrior) reported

    @YahooCare #stopthespam in @aolmail Mailbox flooded by Yanky-directed crap. The buck stops with @jlanzone

  • JCT_212 Jenny (@JCT_212) reported

    @MD_MVA OMG...please fix your hold line. It is literally screeching on and off. Sounds like an old AOL dial up but worse. Tried calling back but that's just how it is.

  • Catheri08698926 Catherine Currie (@Catheri08698926) reported

    @JWilder9 @AOL I was recommended to @Quick_restore. He was able to recover my banned account in less than an hour. He is legit and highly recommended for the service. Go contact him now to get your account back

  • lunatic_core lunatic skies (@lunatic_core) reported

    @ThyVerbingNoun @IGN Game was notoriously hard for people even back in the day. I wonder how many people actually stuck with it. I remember people on the AOL RPG messaged boards getting frustrated with "not being able to damage the bosses" fairly early in the game.

  • Steven_Moyer Steve Moyer (@Steven_Moyer) reported

    @ElleYoe You be scarin' me now, bae. LOL AOL has been totally unhinged since she was caught in Florida. She tried to slam DeSantis for being missing when the guy was off with his wife for her cancer treatments. AOL is an idiot. But we knew that.

  • TheBalderstone TheRealBalderstone (@TheBalderstone) reported

    @diana_murphy613 In the early days of the internet, before the World Wide Web, there was Usenet. Then AOL allowed access. The trolls exploded, which led to The Standard Advice: 1 - Ignore. 2 - Filter. 3 - Help others do the same. #ignoreblockhelp

  • TawniVixen4 Tawni (@TawniVixen4) reported

    I had the internet since early 90s that was AOL , Prodigy, IRC and 1 other service U can't remember.

  • MrBreaze L. Breaze 🇺🇸☮️🆓🗣️ (@MrBreaze) reported

    @Sassychickie Not sure when Twit became a X-rated movie chatline. The anonymity of the internet allows for unwanted social license. I'm guessing these guys are deep down sore because the 'pretty girls' don't constantly hit on them and send nudie pics. AOL chat room rejects I suppose... 🙄
