>When the internet wasn't filled with retards spewing their retarded opinions

Why was the AOL era much more superior to today's internet?

That’s always existed. The difference now is that you have a bunch more people using the internet now than ever before with concentrated shitholes like twitter where people think their opinions matter.

>cost 5,000 to get a computer
>needed an extra landline
>no 100$ shitposting pajeets

AOL was the white internet.

Well it certainly was a smaller internet back then. Now that most people have smartphones, most people are connected.

>>When the internet wasn't filled with retards spewing their retarded opinions
I take it you never went on Usenet.

the majority of AOL users were literally the worst retards
had issues browsing Jow Forums back when I came here in '06 because AOL IPs kept getting banned for one reason or another
the AOL discussion boards were all fucking cancer too, but I still went on them because I didn't know of what else to do on the internet back in '98-99 (there was probably a lot, I just didn't know about it)
shit was a fucking breath of fresh air to discover other web forums

and I was stuck with it until 2007, when I could finally get DSL where I lived in fuck-nowhere PA

>needed an extra landline
man, I remember my friends complaining about having to get off the internet because their family had to use the phone or they were expecting a call or some shit
was so fucking glad my family had another line

Back then the internet lacked the lexicon of Twittiger. Twittiger is literally cancer.

Wow, you are retard

Trolling pedophiles to give up their account info and busting them was the best part of AOL chatrooms. It was almost too easy.

Far fewer people had access back then. Good times.

Everything to do with AOL was packaged by a corporate entity and walled off in order to maximize profit from clueless retards and to enforce near total control over their viewing habits.

In other words, forward thinking from the perspective of Microsoft, Apple, and Google.

I miss all the pedophiles being so nice to me

The retards went on AOL and the smart people were on usenet.

lmao obviously somebody doesn't remember the chatroom cancer that developed throughout aol

Chatrooms were the best part of AOL.

OP is underage.

>>When the internet wasn't filled with retards spewing their retarded opinions
Ask me how I know you weren't around back then.

{s con/con

That's why you went to Talk City chat rooms.

all AOL chat was back then was retards spewing retarded opinions.

Note to reader: If you believe in any kind of golden age political or social or not, you are stupid or misinformed.

>more superior

Because the current internet is filled with retards like you who can’t speak basic English.
