Love your avatar. I miss Netscape. Not that I remember it being awesome or anything. Just nostalgia.

Compared to Internet Explorer it certainly was awesome, as I recall.

Yeah, same. I sort of vaguely remember it as a kid. I had this saved on my computer from somewhere and saw it while making my Lemmy account. What's cool is that it is actually animated on some platforms.

I remember just feeling cool for using something different than everyone else.

Kind of uncomfortable how my other tech choices map onto this logic. Linux, vim, fediverse, ... Am I a dickhead?

No, having a liking for things that aren’t mainstream, in itself, doesn’t make you a dickhead.

Being a dickhead makes one a dickhead.
