You know what sucks?
Back in the day we had the Internet for ourselves, we the abnormals.
When you did something people noticed.
But now it's overpopulated just like the real world. You gotta be outright annoying and spamming to be recognized.
The outcasts became outcasts again.
We're merely ghosts now.

Only in normie tier places like 4chan, Reddit, Facekek, Tumblr, etc. I still have my web cred in some local forums.

I read this same shit even earlier than that.
The people who used the internet pre-2000 aren't fucking gloating about it. Because if you used it before then you either had a job that worked with computers or you were a nerd.
And not like the "oh my god, sooo smart! Such a neeeerrrd! XDDD" kind of nerd, I mean the "get the shit kicked out of you during lunch break" kind of nerd.
The internet is fucking fine. If you don't want normie shit then don't go to Facebook, Reddit, 4chan, etc. Find your own little niche group and settle down there.

The first kind of nerd you described was made possible because of smart phones and easy access for every fuckwad.
There has been a drop in browsing quality because of smartphones let's be honest. Most people before that were contained on Facebook and Bebo before that.

To a degree you're right, but if you want to research anything nowadays, you have to wade through pages of useless articles, clickbait traps, etc., all boosted by companies obsessed with SEO. It's absolute bullshit now, it's become like network cable, and if net neutrality ever goes away, it's only going to get worse.

No, it really isn't. The internet is dying.

It's not as if we don't have an option to stay in our obscure forums
The normies will flock to the kikebook type content aggregrators, but the outcasts will stay where they are
It's better that way

Except there aren't any anymore, and being one of three stubborn people still in a board that used to have hundreds, or thousands, is just stupid. You either have to be a full normie or a complete creepy weirdo, there's nothing in between anymore.

>there aren't any anymore
go find a *chan of your choice and stay in there
there are plenty that don't have anywhere near the traffic 4chan does, and I imagine the people there will know some new places
you could go on the danknet and look for communities there
calm down brah
