Ha! Ich hab's gewusst. Auch diesmal alle meine Einreichungen abgelehnt.

Der will offenbar partout keine Vortragsthemen von mir. 😉

Dabei hätte eines der Themen wegen der -Geschichte so wunderbar gepasst. 😩

Ihr könnt zumindest diesen Vortrag von den GLT22 nachsehen: karl-voit.at/2020/10/23/avoid-

People on have never been on I imagine. Yes, losing content on closed instances is painful. Yet, this ecosystem that is un-shutdown-able. Web forums might not be popular amongst general public but they still exist and remain a valuable source of information focused on a variety of topics. It's hard to compete against funded platforms like but as Elon is proving... You cannot really trust them to last forever as well.

Can somebody with knowledge of C please contribute to github.com/taviso/nntpit ( to gateway) so that we all can profit from the many, many features that don't have? (scoring, unread/read indicators, various views, speed, ...)

So far, the project does seem to provide read-only views and not posting capabilities. I'd LOVE to see becoming stable for general use!

@oatmeal Oh, and I've used that comic strip in my slides of my article about and gated communities in general: karl-voit.at/2020/10/23/avoid-

The first articles and postings discuss what happens, when goes down for good.

Well, this is something you should have been aware of before the current situation: karl-voit.at/2020/10/23/avoid-

Don't contribute anything relevant to gated communities (only)!

Usually, my talks gain much more momentum after the event when people are watching the videos online.

This year, my slightly provoking talk "Don't Contribute Anything Relevant in Like , , , ..." isn't quite that popular on media.ccc.de/v/glt22-284-don-t or youtube.com/watch?v=Tfzlb66Zdg

If you watch, leave a comment here or on pretalx.linuxtage.at/glt22/tal so that I may improve!

@CarlCravens I never used BBS (although I'm that old). However, I second the bad UX of . Absolute basic things like "recognizing what I've already read and what is new" is a total fail in most web forum implementations and I simply do not understand why not everyone is complaining on a daily basis. And this is just one example. 🤷
