Just pertains to the internet, not computers as a whole. Like an offline version of wikipedia, favorite albums/movies/books. Any other ideas?

    The internet is not bad. The internet is not 5 websites. The old internet never went away. IRC never went away. Tildeverse is a thing. Gemini is a thing.

      I like the idea of gemini. But at the same time, plain html is not so bad? If all you want is text and links, we can do this with html too right? Maybe browser complexity is the issue? With a simple text-only browser a web page would just be text. Most modern sites wouldn’t work, but… that’s the point I guess.

        No its not its just covered in my old internet statement. My point is the web is not the internet and web 2.0 is not the web. Webrings can still be a thing. A new protocol can be created tomorrow that learns from the lessons of corporate capture and builds a defense against it.
