Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Happy work week!

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What was very popular in 90’s but almost non-existent now?

Betamax/VCRs, CDs, cassettes, rewritable and recordable discs, floppy disks, video game cartridges.

I still see blank VHS tapes being sold at Landmark. I have no idea why, although it makes perfect sense why that stock isn't moving.

Setting and planning activities for the coming weeks with no instant messaging. Also just visiting your friends' house whenever.

Pupuntahan nyo yung bahay ng kalaro para sunduin, tas tatawagin mo yung pangalan, extended yung huling pantig. Sampol:

pangalan ng kalaro: Erning.

Sisigaw ka sa harap ng bahay: Erniiiiiiii~iing

Wallet-sized physical photos.

Di ko alam kung sa school or area lang namin, pero uso before yung studio pics ng barkada. Usually after exams maaga dini-dismiss yung students, so diretso sa mall after and isa yun sa mga madalas puntahan.

I used to store mine in casette tape cases and may mga ilan din akong napuno.

Photo studios nowadays are aiming towards occasions/parties na lang. Unlike before na kahit saang Kodak branch, may maglilinya mapa-bata o matanda.

And dang, may photo booth pa sila dati, eh.

Crank/prank calling back when landlines were still commonplace
