Same. I was a Digg refuge when I joined Reddit as well. That redesign was totally ass!

Never forget Aaron Swartz.

I hope those are 2 major pieces of the soul of this new digg.

A Link to the Past was the first thing to come to mind. Of course many games since have done storms much better, but that one had the biggest impact on me personally. The jump from 8 to 16 bits was a hell of a thing!

The folks with access to this must be looking at some absolutely fantastic porn right now!

I heard rumours of this love letter to Zelda about a year ago. So glad to see it's real! Moon studio never ceases to blow me away! I can't wait to play this!

I thought it was great? I really enjoyed it. Flute Guy killed it again!

It was love at first sight when I saw xeyes in a desktop environment with multiple workspaces, then the colorized terminal was a cherry on top. DOS and windows 95 were the other main options at this time around the mid-90s. Needing the boot disk and root disk to bootstrap the system was a real adventure for teenage me. The adventure continues almost 30 years later.
