Just putting that out there. While we might have struggle sessions over bullshit, the larger internet zeitgeist is putrid and rancid.

I miss that about the old internet. I’d get home from school and read through a daily rotation of sites’ articles, forums, and blogs. Most of them don’t exist anymore or have completely gone to shit. Ones that are functional are overrun by terminally online chuds whining about minorities and women. Decades ago, they’d get banned for the things they say today or chased off by normalish people. Now, they’re the majority of site users, so they get a pass.
RSS feeds were awesome back then.
Oh yeah, that’s another thing I miss, sites with articles on them, now everything is a video, livestream or podcast. More than once after watching a YouTube video I’ve been left with the thought ”that was just a person reading a bunch of wiki articles and summarizing them”.
I went full circle and now just read the local communist newspaper. They’re libs, but yknow
