Young woman helping an old woman as she reminisces about the old web, "The web used to be open and distributed! Not closed and concentrated in the hands of a few companies!" The young woman, "Sure grandma, now let's get you to bed."

I'm mostly annoyed that the web had become a terrible ai generated dystopia within a giant mall made mostly of Chinese dropshippers.

So don't use those services. It's crazy to me that the existence of these things affects people so much.

Go purchase a sub to the times or media of your choice, get off of social media, buy cable and a DVR, and find some forums. It'll be exactly like the early 00s.
