    Carol pretty much just uses this for those connected to
    her node for Fidonet traffic. Anyone can post here, of
    course. But it's mostly used by us sysops. :)

    Most people are simply enamoured and distracted by the chat
    apps, games and tv. No time to engage in "conversations"
    anymore. :(

    Hey August!

    Most people are simply enamoured and distracted by the chat apps,
    games and tv.

    What's your point?

    No time to engage in "conversations" anymore. :(

    I seriously doubt their abilities. I also doubt whatever apps will connect them to real people anyhow so catering to them is a complete waste of time and resourses.

    My point is "distracted", as stated.

    True. Even using something like Aftershock cannot attract users. Although some editing features are available, cleaning up a quoted message from penguins that look like they've escaped from the zoo can be a daunting task. ;)
