 Is there any #ANSI artists on nostr? Or even dabbled? 

I have so much FREAKING respect for you. You guys were the first true digital artists and I think there should be a resurgence of ANSI and ASCII art, on #nostr #grownostr #asknostr - For those who don't know, ANSI art was basically what drew people to the first bulletin boards of a networked computer system.

This was before the internet. This was 300 baud o_0

BBS.

Please get in contact if you have any experience or memories at all!

Will happily throw this up on flare if I had still had twatter and the contact and consent of the BBS author. Please come to #nostr Jason Scott !!!

(I highly recommend you watch the entire BBS series in that playlist, I also highly recommend you use a service like invidious and download your youtube videos so you can watch them without your friendly local big brother)
