We moved to !casualconversation@piefed.social please look for https://lemm.ee/post/66060114 in your instance search bar

Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

CDs and DVDs and (video)casettes. Took up so much room, annoying to use while travelling.

Quality was also very low. Nostalgia blurred our memories, watching/listening that stuff today is wild.

CDs still sound better than streaming.

DVD and VHS, absolutely they look like trash now.

Oh definitely.

I was thinking VHS and cassettes

Cassettes can sound great if ya got Type III metal tapes. Lots of cheap tapes were Type I, which don't sound nearly as good.

VHS tho nah, as nostalgic as I am for it, it's just a bad option today lol
