Happy anniversary to 4m!

[adm]

It's been a year since this forum launched.

A small, tight-knit community that doesn't rely on RSS feeds or AI content to simulate life. No need for daily posts when there is nothing worth saying. This place shows up when it matters, like any good friend.

Let's keep it that way. Less is more.

Congrats to each other, to lurkers who finally posted and to the regulars who never log off!

Three days late, but happy birthday.

I wonder if anyone will dare to start a joint "Happy 21st to Acorn and Happy 1st to 4m" thread on Acorn?

If you are still thinking of Acorn, perhaps you can do it? ;)

This place needs a few thousand RSS feeds to make it feel like a real community.

Helmuts deleted my account (without me asking him to) and I'm not inclined to open another.

Hence my signature, which is from his Sermon on the Park.

This forum is more plentiful in 1 year than Acorn has been over the last couple of years. I really enjoy engaging with people here, and I agree that less is more.

Ac*rn is the typification of enshitification.

Congrats on the Anniversary

typification of enshitification.

If you're interested in / worried-about / fascinated by enshitification, then Corey will be talking sbout it at NamesCon Miami in Nov.

He's good with the what/how/why but batsh!t about the possible solutions - still worth listening to though IMHO.

Who?

Who?

The guy who coined the phrase: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cory_Doctorow

Rumour has it that he was going to speak at the Domain Summit, but the invitation was withdrawn when Helmuts discovered that Cory planned to use Acorn as an example.
