Why don't people create websites anymore?

Why don't people create websites anymore?
Remember those comfy days of Homestead, Geocities, Angelfire?
What year did people transition from creators to consumers? Is the same level of creativity still there just people moved onto sites like Youtube and Facebook?
Was it the emergence of blog sites like Livejournal that killed off website creating? Will we ever have another golden age like it again?

I'm curious, how many blogs did you follow back in the day?

sites like twitter, instagram etc fulfill people’s desire for self expression and to “have a page on the internet”

Because everything has been centralized to places like Facebook.

Internet was for creative people aka:
* People from academia
* Nerdy Schizoid / Autists
* Makers
* Pornographers
* Deviant of all kinds

All those people tend to create something. But the Internet was far too convenient to be used only by those people, and when the smart-phone "revolution" happened, the creators were outnumbered 1/1000. Some were even forced to leave (deviant, pornographers and some schizoids). The ratio of creators went down, their is many more people on the Internet but most of them are dead weights.

Man early Internet (without dating sites and all) got me laid so much. Now tho whole process is different and much more superficial.

you don't understand OP.
there is a whole agenda to make people scared to visit other sites than fb, yt, tw.
remember those messages you sometimes receive in browser that the site is dangerous?
yes OP.
you got it!
communists know how to play their game.
people will eventually train them-selfs to get freaked by any other domain than their safe zone ones. constantly being bombarded that they catch a flu by visiting domain angels.com or christ.com.
so you see now OP.
how do we break the conditioning?
is there a way out?
if you are not aware of it, there is not.
now you at least know.
now you have a chance to fight it.

It's easier to tell people to go on your twitter, instagram, discord, subreddit or whatever.

People are still doing that, user. It's in places like neocities.org and such.

You just have to look deeper to find them.

People did read them, zoomer.

While I think the user you're replying to is obvious troll:
>don't mind the fact that USSR is destroyed, communists are still a menace
You're seriously rustling my jimmies with that comment. You can't kill ideology, only states.

Most of those had nothing of substance to say and those people migrated to facebook, HN, 9fag or Jow Forums.

Enjoy your data breach

websites used to be pretty shit. on one hand the botnet is out of control on the other hand I’m glad those shitty sites are gone. We should just turn off the internet

Webrings were the shit. Now those had a place and are truly missed!

There was sincerity back then rather than post post irony of modern internet

Texting "*cums in ur pussy*" to someone claiming to be a female ≠ getting laid

actually, cognitive psychology played a big part in this and consumerism is the main reason it worked.

there used to be a cesspool of various designs for websites. some became more successful than others because they had a user interface that made them come back and use the site more, making it popular.

based on a person's attention span and reward systems, you'll group things a certain way to make them more memorable and noticeable.
131 463 989 is easier to read and memorize than 131463989 or 1314 63989. things short term memory spans were taken into account, among other things.
engineers work on making sites addictive nowadays. reward systems and small doses of bad feelings make you come back and use these websites.

we have more tools than ever to make amazing and creative websites, but nowadays a good website isn't necessarily the nicest looking one with fancy graphics and effects. the best websites are the ones where your customer is satisfied, and they usually want good trafficking through their website. so you use psychology to lure them in and make them stay.
