We’ve had plenty of questions about what people miss from reddit that Lemmy had, or what they hope doesn’t come to Lemmy from reddit in future, but do you miss from the earlier days, before reddit that you would like to come back?

Small forums where everybody knew everybody (there’s still some kicking around). Personal websites/blogs were fun. I think they could make a comeback now that it’s easier than ever to host and big social media is going to poo.
The era of personal websites was something else. I remember the weird and wonderful creations you could find on GeoCities.
I once met a person/team, that did what was basically a direct precursor of VTubing, except it was a webcomic formatted as a blog, and you could interact with it’s characters through MSN messenger and e-mail. Too bad it ended quickly likely due to production issues.
