Social media is on the decline. Instagram is all ads. No one's posting on BeReal. TikTok is for influencers. The new place for sharing: group chats.

    The internet has been almost entirely enshittified by large corporations and government overreach. I really do wish there was a way to get back to Web 1.0 of mostly user-generated, self-hosted content, without the slow internet speeds or crappy web design motifs.

    Might be possible if everyone is forced underground due to adblockers possibly getting killed off.

    Web 2.0 was the advent of user generated content. Web 1.0 was not. It was site-generated content for the most part. Some forums possibly. But it was extremely static and was very poor way to find user generated content.

    I blame javascript. If it weren't for people fucking with the time travel machine WE'D be the ones in the original timeline, and no one would have to suffer in this timeline where javascript got invented.
