The internet is a crust of what it once was. I never imagined it would regress this deeply once the normies came.

The absence of normies.
Like computer games it was by smart people, for smart people.

Newgrounds, albinoblacksheep, ebaumsworld, MapleStory, Hoogerbrugge

Geocities pages with animated gifs and tags.
Slowly seeing an image of a nude woman load from top to bottom.

Being patient even though all I had was a dial up connection, no normies, almost every page had worthwhile content... I'll forever cherish those comfy times.

html websites with scrolling text saying welcome to X page. decent, original content. that orgasmic sound when you connected. normies, sheep, plebs and peons fucking ruined everything. can't wait until we ALL BURN FOR ETERNITY.

Geocities was so good. Why did it fail?

It didn't fail, it got shut down for being too good.

woah hold up
the patches may not have been huge but that annoyance existed. Doom got like 4 or 5 patches between 1993 and 1998

When you found what you searched for you could browse what else the users who had it were sharing. Stumbled on a lot of great stuff that way.

No other messaging app/service offers everything MSN messenger did back then. It blows my mind how lacking the current services are compared to what we had.
