What was your first experience using the Internet?
For me, my Dad brought home a laptop from work and we looked up pictures of pokemon and went to the Simpsons website, circa around 1999. How about you?

irc chatting ~1988, lynx via a BBS was my first browsing
Cool! May I ask, what was the vibe like back then?
very academic. it was largely only nerds/computer geeks that could cobble the hardware together to get online, or were maybe interfacing with the local college. i used kermit to upload my homework.
that said, first porn downloads were from these BBSs which were like little mini local AOLs.. provided 'email', chat and some gaming
Best porn was IRC DCC bots with no ratio 😇
