I miss 2000s internet. discussions seemed so much more authentic, I remember when a question on Reddit would get comments a paragraph or more long with people engaging in sincere discussion with one another. now it's all the same recycled jokes and one liners over and over

also those colourful websites people would make that had questionable formatting but a distinct 2000s vibe and tons of character

old YouTube, back when vids were rated by stars and channels were all different colours. why did sites go all corporate looking i hate it
