Hi Ogg,

 On Tuesday April 16 2024, Ogg said to Vorlon:

 D>>> I can see why they loose interest, especially if they dont want to
 D>>> chat via an old text interface  D> that may or may not get a
 D>>> response...

 V>> All the BBS information out there show's that it's more of a txt based
 V>> system, and not a GUI that a user can point a mouse at and click a
 V>> button.

 O> Which means.. that more people are inclined to tap and swipe as  apposed
 O> to use an actual keyboard?

I have come across people that only own a Smartphone and a Tablet.

 V>> There is alo the issue that some people think that FB/ Websites are the
 V>> "Internet" and don't do anything else.

 O> Nah.. people are well aware of the various messenger apps:  WhatsApp,
 O> Messenger, Telegram, Signal, Sypes, Session, Simplex,  Matrix ..to name
 O> a few.  And among them both mobile and desktop  versions are available.

I have also come accross people that think FB and the like is also all of
the internet....
