limewire wasn’t even released until 2000, so i am not sure that’s the best example

Yes but if you used it you were most definitely around in the 90s. Not a lot of infants were on limewire in 2002.

It’s a 00s thing but I understand where you are coming from :)

Napster barely qualifies as 90s. Limewire absolutely not. That’s an 00s program

!!! I lost so much time to Emule! Sadly it is more a 00’s thing. (Which sounds like a fun tread!)

eMule was first released in 2002, as an open source alternative client to the official eDonkey2000 client.

Napster would have technically been a 90’s term, since it released mid 1999, but p2p wasn’t really a mainstream thing until the early 2000’s.

But you wouldn’t have been using eMule in the early 2000’s unless you lived through the 90’s so I think it counts.

I also used eMule.

Sorry, I fail to see, how a product that was developed from 2002 until 2017 proves that you lived through the 90’s.
