No. I’d say the whole internet felt different 10+ years ago. Including this, what people are on here and how they behave. And I’d day the average intellect is different. But that could also be me growing up.

I learned a hell of lot from alt.solar.pv and alt.energy.renewable, and made some great connections via aus.motorcycles.
