I’ve seen some stuff on DALNet
I used to help run a DALNet IRC channel called #hack411 back in the 90s that was basically for newbies to ask questions. Generally it was kids asking about hacking their highschool back then. Lurking on Telegram reminds me of those days so much it is insane, such a broad spectrum of capability.

I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe… Threads on fire off the shoulder of Usenet. I watched K-Lines glitter in the dark near DALnet gate.
All of these moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

Yeah, discoverability's definitely fallen by the wayside some. All of the big servers are still out there though, like rizon, DALnet, and EFnet, mibbit's a good newer one, and some clients like KVirc have baked in server lists to choose from. Then begins the hunt for good channels :)

I was on ARPANET and DALNET back during dialup. It was mostly geeks sharing .wav files and recipes.

Nunca tuve una cita a ciegas Pero si me enamore de alguien por allá en 99 de una reina de saba que conocí en las reuniones de gente que chateabamos por Dalnet y Undernet en foros.
Estuvimos yendo y viendo, entre Medellín, Cali y Phoenix durante cinco años.
Uno si es muy creyente va la madre 😬!

It feels like a fever dream now, but staying up until the crack of dawn on DALnet, taking over #Teens4Jesus and #QuiltChat by pretending to be a channel op, is somehow still permanently burned into my brain. 🤣
Fucking wild!

This is just religion. These are the same sorts of arguments religious folk dumped on dalnet #atheism all through the 90s.
"If you believe this unconnected thing and this other unconnected thing than you must acknowledge that God exists."

In '98 or so my AD&D buddy on DALnet renamed himself fguocdk and hung around #Catholic making anodyne conversation until the mods figured it out and kickbanned him
