which fucking reddit got rid of too
scorched earth
everything even remotely relating to MDE = gone
shit never would've happened in the wild west days of the internet aka like 2007
1998 was wild west
@slobberknocker cheese head poo shit brain
deplatforming someone and wiping out their online presence because they made an edgy joke or have "the wrong opinion" would've been unheard of
you had to be a nerd to be on the internet
you didnt have housewives and shit on there
i was online back then but dont remember it
i didn't even say anything yet 😦
i was nice to you steamie
its a joke
steam the gun is in my mouth
give me a reason not to shoot
internet point of entry used to be like 115+ iq
now minimum is like 60 iq
oh yeah there's the theory (which i believe is correct) that 2007 was the year it all changed -- the iphone was introduced, twitter launched, facebook began accepting non-college-only accounts
oof
all in the span of a few months in '07
but hey
they can steal money from those people too
influx of normies
until it's 99% normies
if you wanted to talk to people you needed to basically know how to launch a rocket ship
AIM
try teaching a 70 year old person to use a mouse
its not easy
babies use ipads
but poking a screen with big buttons is easy
reddit + twitter do not equal the internet though. and if youre winding back to 2007 then the internet didnt even have the mainstreamstay those platforms do now, so it kind of makes sense like TV regulations. im not denying what they do is overboard and to be fought against but its better to shoot energy to new platforms and other areas than lament the inevitable tide of safety chamfering of Big Social. thoughts?
for the same reason elderly people do
2007 you had myspace, news sites
umm
music
that also brought a lot of normies
myspace died in 2007
multimedia capable bandwidth
once fb began accepting everyone
