Google SEO has homogenized the internet with vapid marketing content. The internet is one big commercial. The reason Reddit got popular was because communities found and shared good content and created more by talking about it. Now ads are disguised as posts and memes.
The internet is getting as bad as radio.
Lemmy kinda feels like the 2000's internet and I love it
edit: formatting
i didn't get to experience the 2000s internet and I've been loving lemmy
Yeah. I'm noticing when things get too big, undesirables start creeping in.
'Undesirable' in this sense would be people with more money than sense and incredibly low standards for what they spend it on. They are the kinds that are proud to be ripped off and businesses will cater to them over smarter folk.
Yup and hopefully only the beginning. The fediverse is like a better internet without big tech.
So fucking true.
Thanks, capitalism.
