IT feels like the early days of reddit.

Or before that the early days of digg.

Or before that the early days of fark.

Or before that the early days of sa.

And so it goes...

Maybe. But let's enjoy the early days to the fullest then.

Its a good thing. Forums dying and the community moving on is a good thing. Things don't need to last forever for them to be good, now. I think of it like a cleansing event; like a forest fire or flood.

I’ll admit, I’m in my 30s and never went on fark, never heard of sa

Something Awful. was a website with a front page that had memes and the ability to comment on them. I think it ended up going in a bad way. I don't think I've been there since the 90s.

And before Fark there were the craigslist forums.
