Last time I felt like that when I joined reddit. Being part of a community of tech-enthusiast from all over the world.

Thank you all for being here. Thank you for contributing. Let`s fail better this time.

    Remember how the internet in the late 90’s and early 2000’s felt so much better? I’ve heard someone say that’s because in order to get online, you needed to be tech-savy and smart because computers and the internet weren’t main stream. That’s how I feel here. Regular folk won’t bother joining (they can stay on FB) or even know about it.

      Ah yes, the late 90’s. When we thought the future is looking bright and the internet is the tool to achieve it.

      Sometimes I look into the mirror and ask myself: “What happend?” :-)

        I’m not tech-savvy or all that smart when it comes to a lot things tech based, but I keep trying, and I’ve always had a healthy curiosity to want to know enough to at least try to follow along

        This is worth so much more than knowledge any day.

        That’s one quality that becomes more rare these days. And it’s quite sad to see.

      I meant to reply here but commented at the post.

      Maybe it’s that. People feel more friendly here. And on Reddit people just commented for karma (or at least that was my impression in the big subs)
