Just got here from Reddit, and as a Gen Z from India, it’s amazing to find people with similar vibes—folks into Proxmox, programming, and hacker culture. It’s like a rare, refreshing corner of the internet that doesn’t feel too polluted (not to sound elitist). It really gives that old-school internet feel, even though I wasn’t around for those days.
I love this place, but I’m still figuring out the ropes—like, can’t seem to DM anyone? Not sure if I’m missing something there. Anyway, sorry if this is a bit all over the place; just wanted to share the excitement. Feels like back in the day when engineers and enthusiasts were here before things turned into a rat race.
Just gonna ramble here for a sec, but I’d love to chat with the mods and the OGs here in real life. This place has such a unique vibe—it kinda reminds me of that post-liberalization era in India? Like, when the economy was booming, NRIs were coming back, and there was this "roaring tiger" energy. It feels like there was so much enthusiasm (idk Swades movie lololol) I don’t know. I’m just young and stupid, but I love it here!
It’s surreal because I know I wasn’t even around back in the time I’m talking about, but somehow, I still feel nostalgic. It’s like this strange sense of longing for an era I never actually experienced. And now, being on the brink of leaving this country, it’s even stranger—like, there’s this vibe, this nostalgia for something that wasn’t mine, pulling me to stay.
