  • Is it still worth running a BBS?

    From Snobsoft@VERT/PARTYBOW to All on Thu Mar 27 07:16:07 2025
    It might depend on how you define "worth." If you're expecting the same traffic and the same level of importance as in 1985, then certainly not. However, if you enjoy connecting with a few but often very nice BBS users, and nowadays from all over the world instead of just Hamburg (as is the case with Snobsoft BBS), then definitely.
    Lately, I've even been receiving wonderful surprise packages feat a floppy named "Gandalf" from kind Snobsoft users. More about this in this video, in the unboxing segment.
