Well, porn, of course.
The internet is for porn
Tap for spoiler
Reference to a youtube video from World of Warcraft
Already mentioned in OP, but a copy of Wikipedia would be first priority.
To say something else, I'd also grab the archive of GameFAQs guides.
GameFAQs guides is a clutch answer
Annas archive.....
Anna's archive does not host files itself but links to third party downloads. So without the internet it would be useless.
anna's archive's archive! (I wonder how many tb or pb that would be? same with the internet archive.)
The source files for Annas Archive seem to be around 1900 TB.
hell yeah.
Thicc knowledge
As much music as I can
Archive.org has archived an awful lot of websites and other data, including Wikipedia. If I had to take just one website, I'd take that one.
The equivalent to βinfinity wishesβ. Love it.
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.
Offline wipideia, maps, dictionaries and study material in at least japanese and Norwegian, and every how-to video on farming, bikes, cars, tractos, home repair, and carpentry I could get my hands on. I actually prefer books for some things, but reading japanese is such a slog for me, having them in English would save a lot of time.
Maps and navigation. Human-to-human communication could still happen via phone call. But navigation is absolutely required now. I remember having to drive places with a simple map and it sucked.
maybe just avoid the social media sites.
All the porn
Well, I would absolutely make a list of every single song I would ever want to download, every show/movie, every video from my favorite creators, and install my whole entire Steam/itch.io library, get the installers for every GOG game I have, get every single favorited art on FurAffinity/Weasyl downloaded, and then probably download an offline version of wikipedia to ensure I have plenty of things to do.
Would need tens of terabytes, if not a hundred plus terabytes, of storage to do all this, but I'd be gutted without the internet because of how much I use it.
all stable versions of Dwarf Fortress and all the NES, SNES, and GBA ROMs and manuals I can find
uh, and a backup of my personal blog, I guess
Shrek
Music and games. I'd be looking at GoG game installs.
I've got a collection already downloaded using Kiwix on an old Android tablet's storage card.
Wikipedia, a metric ton of books from Project Gutenberg, Medwiki and other medical books, stuff on homesteading, the last edition if the CIA factbook.
I can edit after I get home from work with a more complete list. Basically, I scrolled through Kiwix and grabbed what looked useful if I didn't have internet.
Edit: As promised here is my complete list of downloads via Kiwix

probably my steam library (well the singleplayer ones that is), and every single ROM known to man
ROMs ftw
maybe some old usenet/reddit archives..
I already have 30 G of music, lots of TV series and movies, and all my own pictures plus a bunch of interesting ones from the internet. I also have a bunch of ebooks covering various topics including software development tech, wilderness survival, and bushcraft/homestead tutorials. I'd say I already have everything I'd take from the internet.
I've never been one to rely on the internet being available. If something is important to me, I save it just in case. Periodically I review what I have and purge what no longer matters.
I honestly don't think I could. It is way too integrated to how I travel/vacation. I've used paper maps in the past, but there is a lot more information there in online guides.
Even offline Google maps won't work as they fail of not connected occasionally
Gotta just have more whimsy in your travel ig. Expensive ass whimsy
All the dots. . com would become com. 192.168.1.1 would become 19216811. All mentions of dippin dots would be affected across many different areas, though no one would be able to see it. Take all the tops off lower case I's. It'd be fun.
Wikipedia.
Regarding other stuff, I hoard myself thank you very much. π
I'd be glad I chose the PS5 with an optical drive, though I'll have little reason to play as I only really play online with friends
I'd be disappointed as I'd have to work from the office
If it was a general thing my employer would be unhappy as they only have office space for about half of us
I'd download Wikipedia, and a lot of stuff from archive.org, all my photos and online stored stuff, the rust book
Thinking about it, I think it would be impossible if it was just me - so much of my work is online and must be as my team is distributed around the country
Diy stuff
Books and manga, and music, honestly. Without video it would take some adjustment because honestly I use or more like background noise for my eyes and ears lol but I can manage.
Books can be fictional and non fictional stories, manuals, guides and recipes.
My offline TV / movie collection plus this collection of random internet images. I'd just miss interacting about them

Information about any skills I might want to improve or learn someday. Tutorials, professional reference sites, an archive of subreddits & other discussion communities dedicated to the topic. There's so much depth of experience and know-how for any given skill on the internet; this would be one of the hardest things to give up access to current information on.
Similarly, inspiration reference for a lot of creative skills I pursue or may pursue in the future. A huge pile of blog posts, Pinterest tag archives, and YouTube downloads. It'll be disappointing after a few years to not have easy access to current trends and styles, but hopefully enough of the reference is timeless.
I'd try to find some way to capture the vast amount of human life experience shared on the internet. Ask Metafilter archives, all the essays and blog posts I can find on different life stages and milestones and potential challenges that I can think of. It wouldn't be the same as being able to actually connect with other people going through the same thing, which the internet makes so much easier, but at least it'd still be comforting to know they existed and hopefully learn from what they wrote about their experience.
Overall I'd rather not swear off the internet. Everyone loves to complain about the bad parts, but I think it's a lot more dependent on how we choose to spend our time online than anything else.
I have most of what I need/want outside of the Internet (books, newspapers, people to discuss with, places to go,... even my music and movies are physical media/offline). I would get back a tad more free time, I guess which would probably be great ;)
Don't see myself lasting long without Invideous or Soulseek.
Are we talking like I get to bring with me everything that currently exists on a platform or everything that will exist?
Currently!
I don't have a good answer for this, but you may be interested in this video.
Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand.
