If I setup one will you join?
Also its been almost 2 decades since I last heard this word!
Probably, I'd have to dig out an old 56k v.90 modem from somewhere though, unless you build and internet based bbs, not sure what those actually are though - sounds like a web site to me ;)
There are still active BBSs that use telnet or ssh, the experience is the same as the old modem days just without the beautiful dial tones and without latency.
How many here are too young to have even heard a modem sound? I work with young software developers who can’t even fathom not having a laptop and Internet connection while getting their degree. I just missed punch cards but got to do CS 1 with 11” floppies!
I was planning on installing a BBS clone that would be over internet - no modems. I dont even have a land line lol
If you start one up I’ll help you. I have no experience running a BBS, I caught the tail end of them as a youngster but have networking and software skills. Let me know. We could make a GA BBS! Truth Social Lite Edition BBS
