Well so long VB.... yeah, only Quick Replies work here now... NEW REPLY decided to retire before March 2024 lol.. I'll miss the good old days. Learned to code through AOL, then Myspace, then VB brought me to a different level of learning. Will always appreciate the software for that. But everything has a life cycle, transformation and change is inevitable. We just have to flow with it, or move past it. Best wishes to all the OG's.
Currently using VB6. It's not bad honestly, and with the advancement of other technologies across the web, addons are not as important... especially with the way new users are interacting online. What I do need, or find essential I can code on my own, but many of the major addons once offered here are no longer relevant to the using audience in my opinion. It's more nostalgia. I literally wanted to recreate a VB3 and VB4 website to serve as a kind of "VB MUSEUM" equipped with all popular addons of that time.... but decided to pass on it. I was stuck on the nostalgia of it all. Even now, my website using vb6 is main solely for my personal enjoyment. I don't advertise or promote it. It's just a personal hobby, and something I get interest out of it.
Hope you all continue building, and working to bring back those strong communities once again!
