@isotopp @leyrer ICQ war eh sauspät eigentlich, zumindest für uns Altherren hier..
Meinen IRC nick hab ich irgendwann in den 90ern mal auf WooShell festgelegt, davor war der eher so launenabhängig alle paar Monate mal anders.
Was "I have usernames older than you" angeht.. das älteste was ich noch im Kopf hab (und irgendwo auf ner Visitenkarte) is mein CompuServe Mailpath.. 100572.2042!cisvax, das war 1988-92, danach hamse auf SMTP umgestellt.

@leyrer And by the way, House is an old geezer as well.

@leyrer

I can't remember mine.

I'm imagining this speech being said in the epic Blade Runner scene 😂

@leyrer

Not going to lie, "Top 8" was where social media first went seriously wrong. There was so much toxicity involved with those.

@WooShell @leyrer ja, ich wäre mcshh!tpki!kriski!Kris aber das versteht keiner mehr

@eliasp @leyrer I was 4410132 and knew a guy with an even smaller dicks^WUIN, like @fribbledom here. And I'm just 46.

@leyrer ICQ?! I don't interact with anyone who hasn't received email addressed in UUCP notation.

[angiebaby@mas.to]

@leyrer I can't remember it, sadly, but my ICQ number was six digits.

[yadt@tech.lgbt]

@leyrer

UIN 268004, such simpler times...

[perrin42@mastodon.social]

@leyrer

1982754. And I could diagnose modem connection speed issues by listening to the handshake.

[stumpi@c64.social]

@leyrer 17235611 - meine ist älter 😉

[nohn@phpc.social]

@leyrer 22239636 sticht. Noch auf dem Amiga eingerichtet, weil ich erst mit NT4 PCs ertragen konnte. Verrückt, dass ich mich noch immer an die Nummer erinnere.

[count_01@mastodon.social]

@leyrer "you wouldn't be in my top 8" is low and cheap and I love it.(I don't remember my icq number, but the 240 Mb hard drive on my Powerbook probably doesn't either, so I think I can be forgiven)

[eq@mas.to]

@cybso Don't worry about age, your ICQ-number is at least two digits too long for that 🙂

[mlanger@mastodon.world]

@leyrer My claim to fame back in the day? On AOL I was MariaL1.🤣

I bought my first domain name in 1994 and still have it.

[richardloxley@mastodon.richardloxley.com]

@leyrer I remember a younger friend asking a question on social media “what’s your oldest content on the internet that still has a reachable URL”. I directed them to some content of mine still reachable on the internet that predated the invention of the URL ;-)
