For a long time, a tiny handful of sites, especially reddit and other social media and youtube, have dominated my idea of the internet, and I’d love to change that and find cool new places.

It is closed now, but I was a member of LUElinks (which then became End of the Internet). It was born out of the GameFAQs “Life, the Universe, and Everything” board which had a reputation of doing immature shit circa 2001-2004 IIRC. One of the members decided it would be cool to do file sharing on LUE so he built LUElinks - instead of directly linking something, you would get a code you could post out in the open and non-members would be none the wiser (I guess). Eventually GameFAQs announced it was wiping its hands of the LUE message board and LUElinks became its own forum community for nearly 20 years. It went through some changes over the years (file sharing stopped in 2013 due to potential legal issues related to a Harry Potter book). But it was 100% the community I was a member of the longest, and I am sad it closed.
