Loosely inspired by how much people seemed to enjoy a similar question I asked on Games about unappreciated titles. But answers don't have to be media related (they still can be though).

Computing history, obscure operating systems, movies and music my friends never heard about, fringe humour nobody gets.

You might enjoy Cathode Ray Dude on youtube. Really obscure 80s-00s stuff.

I spotted a Vectrex in a flea market in a small Canadian town and had no money. :(

Can you give an example of fringe humour that comes to your mind ?

[-] Quazatron@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

For instance, some Portuguese comedians that are not mainstream in Portugal. Can't get more obscure than that.

I really like messing with various softwares on my computer. Most of the times it's the old webpages and the old pieces of software that engage me the most.
