Farewell to Taringa!: A Look Back at the Iconic Website’s 20-Year Legacy

2024-03-12 00:46:22

After 20 years in operation, the iconic website “Ears!” announced this Monday that by the end of the month it will have stopped working.

The news was given on the same page, in a publication they explained that “the reasons are as simple as they are difficult to accept. With the change in trends in recent years regarding social networks, taringa! designed a product that sought what other platforms might not achieve, a space of freedom where content might be monetized. However, due to market conditions and the competitiveness of social media, this dream has been thwarted.”

“Later we will give you more details regarding how this process will take place and what you need to know. I’m keeping the bardo I have inside, I’ll take it out later,” they added.

The Argentine forum website, popular like few others in times before the massification of social networks, became the third most used website in Latin America, Clarín recalls. In it, tutorials, advice, recipes, news were disseminated, and even – causing controversy due to potential infringements of copyright – movies, series, video games and music.

“They can call us virgos, acidic, unbearable, antisocial and whatever they want. But we have made history and no one can ever deny that to us,” they defended, however, in their statement from Taringa!.

Thus, they closed by expressing that “thank you for everything, taringueros. What we achieved together in these 20 years will remain in the history of the internet forever.”
