Shoq 🌿It wasn’t journalists, tech bros, and influencers who made the Internet a thing. It was librarians, scientists, educators, and programmers.
Peter Prevos 💧🎓📊🇳🇱🇦🇺@shoq The internet used to be a global village of people sharing ideas. Now, it is a bunch of corporate skyscrapers.
Daniel Tuttle 🌵🤘@danderzei @shoq I think about this every day and it makes me sad. I miss the feeling of the Internet of the 90s
@DanielTuttle @shoq We can take the Internet back with technologies like Fediverse. We need a new Geocities!
@danderzei @DanielTuttle Or at the very least, a new Angelfire! (It still exists, btw)
I want the old webrings back and do them in a way that only non-commercial websites (no adds) can join.
@danderzei @shoq I do miss webrings and guestbooks haha
@danderzei @DanielTuttle Webrings will make a comeback, soon. But they will be reinvented to be deeper better curated.
@shoq @DanielTuttle Somebody tried once, and they got killed by SEO optimisers with low-content websites.
