Nah, this is millennial energy right here. "Fuck social media, why doesn't everyone have a geocities page with a webring that links to their angelfire page and guestbooks and ICQ and stumbleupon KIDS NEED TO STOP HAVING A DIFFERENT INTERNET EXPERIENCE THAN I GREW UP WITH!"
Gen-x, as is their nature, simultaneously doesn't care and complains endlessly about everything equally, even the stuff they like, especially the stuff they like.
To put it in a perspective that this audience will understand; boomers are superintendent Chalmers. Millenials are Principal Skinner. Gen-x is Comic Book Guy.
yeah but the internet objectively sucks ass now and the webrings dont seem that bad ngl. also the 'geocities page with a webring that links to their angelfire page and guestbooks and ICQ and stumbleupon' still exists lmfao (neocities etc)
The internet objectively sucked back then too. But it seemed cool, because it was new and exciting and all the millennials that are nostalgic for it were young teens at the time.
Not a millennial but I will always argue that the modern internet is inherently worse for people than the internet even of 15 years ago.
It's a very different place.
Best. Explanation. Everrr.
Fuck social media, why doesn’t everyone have a geocities page with a webring that links to their angelfire page and guestbooks and ICQ and stumbleupon KIDS NEED TO STOP HAVING A DIFFERENT INTERNET EXPERIENCE THAN I GREW UP WITH!”
This, but unironicly!
I want to live in a world where people blame geocities and angelfire instead of alphabet and meta for destroying the internet and spreading misinformation
