Us olds sometimes miss Slashdot, where we could both joke about tech and discuss it seriously in the same place. But also because in 2000 we were all cynical Gen Xers :)

MAN I remember Slashdot… good times. (Score:5, Funny)
You reminded me that I still find it interesting that no one ever copied meta-moderating. Even at reddit, we were all Slashdot users previously. We considered it, but never really did it. At the time our argument was that it was too complicated for most users.
Sometimes I wonder if we were right.
Some of us still *are* cynical Gen Xers, you insensitive clod!
Of course we are, I just meant back then almost all of us were. The boomers didn't really use social media back then, so it was just us latchkey kids running amok!
I know, I just couldn't miss up an opportunity to dust off the insensitive clod meme!
