Retoor is really refusing to let devrant die. At this point DR should be put out of his misery

Also have a wonderful 2026

I‘m contributing to the life extending misery :)

For some reason I am reminded of Kenny && the feeding tube dilemma.

Also - yeah, keeping dR alive.

I like the small forum feel DR has. Is there somewhere else with a similar vibe or is this it?

Forgive my naivety but why not just fix it? I mean, say you were to pick a date, like a month ago. Make everything before that part of a read-only archive and re-architect a whole new robust system and import the most recent month worth of posts into it?

@JS-Guy The developers responsible for this project are not really active from what I can tell. It's a miracle DR is still up.

We have a few other solutions, 2 discords, 1 my.devplace.net, matrix chat(?), snek.molodetz, maybe more that i'm not aware of. But not really possible to get everyone to migrate

@cuddlyogre I also like the size this community has. Nah, it's a bit too small now. But I dunno, how much is left to rant anyway. Life's good. I think devrant is like religion. Sometimes the sheepy lost his way but I'm the end he'll always come back to flock. We're flockers.

@wojtek322 don't forget about rantii, Yura's android app and skyrant. And not to forget' dr.molodetz.nl for people who do not like bugs while browsing on the tv or laptop.

devRant is a social experiment that takes ten years. Dfox and Trogus had a bet what would happen if you let monkeys alone without moderation. Many times they wanted to intervene but that would've destroyed years of research.

@wojtek322 oh, and forget js rant, also still alive and kicking. S arch it 😁It's really cool.

@whimsical I see. So all the other users who left devrant just found out the truth and joined the science team of the experiment, wearing ridiculous ties.

@whimsical What is the skyrant?

@Lensflare I think they'd taken the red pill && woke up from the dream.

@D-4got10-01 fools. Ignorance is bliss!

@wojtek322 skyrant is an android app for devRant. It's in the store.
