Internet in 2013 vs Internet Now

Does that explain why things have gotten so bad?

PewDiePie vs T-Series was really the last battle for a White internet. And now ultimately the White internet brutally lost, with T Series now having almost 200 million more subscribers than the Swedish gamer chad from the old White internet.

Before it was us elite Chad's with dial up modems that could talk to a mysterious pedophile that wanted to kidnap us and take us to pizza restaurants,

Now it's filled with kids that have never had a mystery ai wanting to kidnap children into the matrix.

I had the honor and privilege of using the internet since 2006. The internet used to have such high quality spaces compared to today simply due to the fact the user were composed of Anglo-Europeans. Indians literally shit up the internet ecosystems.

You missed internet 1.0 entirely. I started using it in about 96, something changed right around 2008 and that's when I think it switched to 2.0. I believe we are in 3.0 right now.

You just beat me anon. 1995 fag here.
But you are right. I cannot stress to the lads how different 90s internet was. Yes, early 2000s was still wild, and even up to 2010 it was loose.
But 90s internet was what it should have always been before the corporations took it. We will never get it back.
4chan can still, sometimes, rarely, have a 2008 feel. But 1997 internet is gone forever never to return.

Internet has already kinda exploded by then. Same with mobile phones. It happened so quickly. In 1997 I was a weird need for being on the I twrbwt and having a mobile phone. In 2001 every 17 year old had a phone and rushed home to chat to there friend on MSN messager.
The change was so quick.
And then the corporate takeover so quick after that.

The internet was fine when it was a supplement to real life which you could disconnect from and mostly live without.
Now real life is a supplement to the internet. It's seriously unhealthy already and it's only going to get worse.

Same
but it was not all good, the dial up cost a small fortune and took ages just to get to a BBS
You could find anything between heaven and earth, easily which is why i got a phone bill for almost 3k late autumn of 94
I remember making web sites in flash in early 00, because it was the "new big thing" kek
The launch of 4chan and Pirate Bay and the blocking of them both because our government considered them "dangerous"
And the rise and fall of Stickam a couple years later was an even clearer sign that we where heading towards this kind of net, what ever this is and it was not really fun anymore
It was amazing in the beginning though, and it really felt like freedom
