Windows XP's online games servers are still running and there are still people playing on it. I'm playing reversi with someone right now. https://octodon.social/media/LZrIW17ENkc4K72vO1M
@Siphonay also, the XP activation servers still work. This computer I installed has a fully activated genuine Windows XP license :/
@Siphonay i think this is probably the least toxic online gaming experience in the universe
@tinybarks yeah! also I'm playing fortnite lately, and there's no way to interact with strangers out of the gameplay, and I think that's great
@Siphonay I'm almost surprised that Windows Update still works on Windows XP, it'll still patch itself up after a fresh install.
I just installed XP a little while ago, and logged all the updates it did so I could look them up later in case MS takes the update service down. Maybe I'll save them on a CD or something as a sort of pseudo-SP4.
