a brief history of trackers by Ahoy (YouTube)

Post by Riverbomb »

not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this, but Ahoy posted a vid a few days ago about trackers -

it might be more 'old news' than not for users of this forum...'old news' in more ways than one...keygens, rampant software piracy as the norm, the demoscene, Noise/Sound/Fast/Milky trackers...old shit of which i am the disgusting teenage afterbirth of...(basically boomer shit you'd be a weirdo to care about if you're under 30)

did i mention i am old :crazy:

its well made, and its cool to see more of a 'trackers from the perspective of a gamer/game dev' than trackers from my perspective of that of a musician.

but being also a gamer myself, i'm well familiar w/ Ahoy as theyre a bit of a dinosaur in YT years...a gaming channel posting mostly about games (opposed to streaming gameplay), what i mean is theyre far from a YouTube deep dive - so i am kinda expecting anyone thats reading this here to have already seen it? But who knows, it was only posted 3 days ago:

PS: spoiler - of course Ahoy knows their shit well enough not to forget to mention Sunvox, which is what gave me the idea to post this here.
