I kind of feel like a weirdo for not chatting a lot, I guess?
I don’t know. Windows 7 was widely considered to be the nadir.
This is some good news. I don’t have a deep or intelligent comment beyond, “nice.”
I think you hit on one of the key points. Every other time this same pattern has played out, each of those sites becomes a shadow of what they once were, but the continue because (to be blunt) running Internet sites is CHEAP.
Really, it’s totally in the category “when you’re getting something for free, you’re not the audience, but rather the product.”
When people failed to buy in very deeply to the tchotchkes to “pay” for Reddit, it was the last gasp of any effort other than wholesaling the dataset to advertisers and anyone willing to pay for the content.
My break from Reddit wasn’t driven by any one single act, but rather the continued (and organized) sanitization of the Internet to appease conservative, Christian investors who make demands on the morality of the content of a site.
I used to do this with Gentoo, and it was always a blast! Glad that you’re having fun “rolling your own!”
