I miss the old days of people making niche websites for their hobbies, their own blogs, and message boards.

So many people think of the Internet as Google, Meta, Netflix, or . That makes me sad.

I don't see a way back to a less commercialized internet, but little pockets of goodness like Lemmy make me happy.

You'd think that with QR codes every-fucking-where these days, that we could easily swing back to everyone having their own website. Back in the bad old days, it was hell on wheels to share URLs with folks. Now? There's nothing stopping us.
