I can remember operating microsoft word in DOS, which looked quite similar on a monochrome (non-flat) screen.
wordstar, word perfect? Meh kids these days always using the new fangled shit! LocoScript. Who can remember that? Never tried it, I was using TED at that time and never really cared about formatting as I was just kicking out line numbers. You didn't miss much. It was actually a very good word processor, but the computer it run on (Amstrad PCW 8256/8512) was not very useful (except at the single task of running LocoScript). Probably the worst choice of computer I've ever made, although now it has some historical value. My next one was a Commodore Amiga 500, which was a truly out-of-this-world experience.

You are still early… how early? Imagine you adopting internet during 1990-2000.
I don't think many of us here have to imagine it. I can remember operating microsoft word in DOS, which looked quite similar on a monochrome (non-flat) screen. And by remembering this, i also recalled Eliza, my first commandline encounter of AI (oldschool insiders may lol here). We didn't even have internet by this time, about the early 1990's, which was installed later in 1994 at my parent's house, when i was already operating Cubase Audio (4 Stereo tracks!) via mouse and keyboard in Windows, on Intel 486 or early pentium (75 or 90 mHz) CPU. 30 years... Oh man this takes me back. I also had the P75 which I overclocked to a P90 by changing the FSB; looking back it was pretty cutting edge stuff for a 10ish year old. I really miss those days tinkering with hardware, everything was so fresh and exciting and overclocking often returned huge gains (Celeron 300A @ 450MHz anyone? )

I still use Pen to write seed on paper as I never store it digitally.
using a pencil on paper may last longer than ink on paper although archive quality paper/ink exist.

Bitcoin revolution is about to happen in my country Indonesia. Already Bitcoin House Bali has been inaugurated in Indonesia. With Bitcoin House Bali, Bitcoin Indonesia wants to set an example and show the Indonesian people, government and economy the many possibilities of Bitcoin. X

I had my first computer in the 90s.. model 486... I remember that the computer even had a "Turbo" button...my dream was to have a CD ROM drive and a Sound Blaster card... I played F1 a lot on this computer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQwAE2EWdl0Really good times.

Edit: oh I forgot the time of Internet Cafes.. if I consider that then it would be 2000/2001 and my first “yahoo” email xxxx2000@yahoo.com is still active

yeah my first and second email still there and active.
I used my library in 1993 maybe in 1994. My buddy across the street worked at comp usa. He set up a nice system in his house in 1996. I used a friend's in his bank he was an owner and vp of the bank.
I got one in my house in 2005. A Mac mini.
I modded and sold a few hundred Mac mini's on ebay and I left the first feedback on ebay to Newegg.
But I got in to computers in 1975 an IBM 360 then joined the Navy in 1978-1983 As a Data processing tech.
Punch cards.
Try fixing a punch card reader in high seas in the pacific. Very very very long ago. and far away.
