What do you miss from the old internet? - eviltoast

i think we need Cracked-style articles back. desperately. or like, a guy doing a weird thing and writing a piece on it. sites like those are declining faster than the glaciers.

    Heads up: Lemmy will either get less popular or more popular over time. Neither is ideal.

    And while it never feels like it when you say it, but these are [going to be] the good ol’ days.

      Well that’s pretty much every platform’s lifecycle. Starts small, reaches a sweet spot and either implodes or sucks ass.

      I was on Digg, I had a MySpace page, I was an early Twitter user, I had a Reddit account… who knows how long I’ll be on here. But for now, I’m happy to be one of the users on the upswing.
