I don't miss dial-up internet, I just don't. I don't even like the sound because it's just digital screeches and it's a sound that makes me cringe a little upon hearing it. Because I remember the times when I'd be listening to music with headphones with volume high and then that fucking digital screech just blares into my ears.

I don't miss waiting 30 minutes to load a page. I don't miss a bit of it.

Nightcore existed since like early 2000s. Huge scene when youtube just became a thing. Vaporwave came at the very least in 2010s, when lofi experienced a burst of popularity
