Anyone Still Here: Redux
I drive by from time to time. Hope we get some more activity someday.
If you take away their comforts, people are just like any other animal.
That's what happens when you try to stay away from most forms of social media.

Ironically, a year of plague would have been a very reasonable period to have something like Bulldrek to fill the time, but alas it was rather badly broken at the time. Control seems to have sorted all that, though.

Thanks, Control. Had to redo the whole thing?

The plan for years had been to just hold it exactly how it was, but holy shit spam control was a real problem, and security became an increasing issue. I looked at making it a static archive, but that comes with a huge variety of challenges all its own.
Fortunately, there was still an upgrade path from 2.x to 3.x, so at some point it makes more sense to put a new engine in rather than just keep dusting and grinding out the rust. Whatever the current public opinion about Bulldrek, it means that we all have a home no matter what else happens.

I like new engines. Like having a home, too.
