Welcome to the nostalgia-filled piefed instance of yesteryear.

Open Registration with Application questionnaire.

In case of downtime and/or emergency, we will post updates on @DosDude@mastodon.social

Some rules we try to uphold:

  • Be civil. Bigotry is not welcome. This includes (but is not limited to): transphobia, queerphobia, racism, ageism and ableism. We do not promote hate.
  • Communities need to be Retro or Retro-adjacent.
  • Please don't upload pornographic content. (use an external image host for that)

This sounds genuinely awful to me. Every time I open an incognito tab to search something or watch a video without affecting my watch history, the default recommended videos are the absolutely worst most insane slop I've ever seen.

The home page turns off, but recommended videos still show up in the sidebar as usual.
