Maybe your Internet will be dead, but mine will be alive in the corners that corporats [sic] don’t care about.
I think it’s in those corners, ignored by the big companies, that true innovation will be seen.
That innovation will replace them later
Or, in more realistic terms, the internet is already mostly dead. Half of the stuff that should be available on clearnet or the visible web is now hidden in Discord chats. The hope lies in things like Gemini, Tor, and Freenet, but even there the braintrust is in Matrix.
It’s fine, because human civilization is quickly going down the drain. Pretty soon the remaining survivors and scavengers will have no need for the Internet. And honestly, at this point in the Late-stage capitalist cancerous tumor of Nations we have currently around, with strongmen dictators thriving, I’m happy to see it all end.
I don’t want to even live in a well-regulated capitalist society, and certainly not now with the sinister surveillance just hardening into place!
At the rate AI slop is taking over, I think 3 months is more likely.
Retvrn to tradition. The internet peaked with 2000s-era forums.
Government ruined that too.
Popular Mechanics is like tech coverage from “Weekly World News”.
If you mean it’s the hot sheets and they’re never wrong, I don’t disagree.
Can we go back talking to… you know… real people? Like, in person?
