Back in like 2006, I’ve made an account for myself. A bot added me, asked how big my dick is, and then I’ve never used it again
Check your DMs
Uh oh!
Rip. You were always better than msm message.
I can still hear that uh oh
Ok but only because of that prozzac song lol
Damn i still say that like that sometimes, and i totally forgot where it came from
the weirdest location I ever heard that sound was a random small supermarket that had that sound as the scan-bleep-sound of the register barcode scanner.
Every item that was getting pulled over it, went “uh oh”
If I’d work there I’d probably get fired for destroying that.
yup. it was already quite hard to stay calm during the short time I had to queue
fudge
I assume today it is more a compete OS with games, browser, officer suite, video editing, … than just a messenger? It sure would be if I extrapolate my experience from back in the day.
Man, those were the days…
RIP ICQ, you were a real one
Nooooooo. I can’t remember my ICQ, maybe I still have it somewhere, but this is still sad.
At least IRC is still going.
Edit:
In its heyday, ICQ boasted over 100 million users on its platform, which was a remarkable achievement at the time. In 2010, ICQ was purchased by Mail.ru (now VK), who has since owned the products as it declined in use.
Today, ICQ announced that they are shutting down on June 26th, recommending that users switch to VK Messenger and Workspace.
So apparently Russian business killed it.
Considering how many other messengers died before ICQ I would say Russian VK kept it alive…
Holy shit,I didn’t even know it was still available
I seek you. so clever…
The king has died, long live the shit we have now?
You mean MSN messenger doesn’t exist anymore?!?
Out of everything we have today, Discord is arguably the best we’ve got.
Nobody cares about Skype anymore as much. VK Messenger, which is ICQ’s successor, looks like trash. Telegram used to be very great but did take some morally questionable steps, yet still gives the user an awful lot of power. Zoom is garbage. Microsoft Teams is garbage. Facebook Messenger is garbage.
So if I had to pick, Discord and Telegram is the best we’ve got now.
Out of everything we have today, Discord is arguably the best we’ve got.
That’s amazingly depressing.
Slack?
Slack went AI retard.
IRC? Matrix? XMPP?
signal? 🤷♂️
I sadly agree with you.
TIL ICQ was still going.
Same here. LOL!
We three!
I remember when they first introduced the live chat feature.
You could literally watch the other person type something out, erase their mistakes and correct it in real time.
That shit blew my mind as a kid.
RIP one of the most enjoyable messengers I ever used 🫡
