#MonoBBS - Qoto Mastodon

Thinking about the history of #MonoBBS, I realise we've got a huge archive of data and (hopefully) some interesting comments from the MicroVotes section. This was started in 2003 and remains one of the most active sections, with 1672 votes over the years.

SSH terminal showing a mono screen from MicroVotes. Several menu options including comments & suggestions, instructions, guidelines and announcements. Votes include discussion on Xmas Chocolate, ULEZ and Fake Real Meat. The oldest vote is from 15 weeks ago, with 6 in the current week.

The infotext area shows the section title, rendered with figlet, the section owner, and the keypath. As this is the Mono Votes section, <MV>, the section owner has chosen U for this menu (micro), which helps users remember the keypath shortcut to the section.
