Wanted to ask you about this article, how do you remember the early days of the internet (I was sadly too young at that time). Do you wish it back? And do you think it can ever be like that again? I would be very interested

    i miss all the charming chatrooms, blogs and this realy oldschool selfmade homepages.

    Also i miss MSN a little bit but Discord is a close enough experience.

    Sadly after Facebook got popular all of these went downhill realy quick…

      Discord isn’t close to MSN Messenger at all. Facebook Messenger is a bit closer IMO, but I think people are just accepting that MSN will never come back and nothing else will fill the void it’s left in the internet.

        depends on how you used MSN back then. For typing with online friends i mainly used chatrooms, MSN did the job for voice- and videocalls, sharing “funny” videos and pictures (now we would call it memes), links and other media. Later with Windows Live Messenger i played allot Uno and other featured games there.

        So Discord filled up all these things i used MSN/Live Messenger back then close enough.
