Comment on What do you think about the dead internet theory?
Fmstrat@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoA new internet isn’t even needed, just a new protocol.
Corpos aren’t on Gopher or Gemini, for instance.

We don’t even need a new protocol. HTTP/1.1 is perfectly fine! I wish people would stop trying to throw it out.

Beyond the technical aspect, I don’t see how this is feasible. There are few sites out there supporting just 1.1, and the population using HTTP won’t likely create more. While those using alternatives continue to.

Eh? Doesn’t pretty much everything support HTTP 1.1 still? It’s not like it’s dead.
And growing a community of HTTP 1.1 website people certainly isn’t any harder than growing a community of alt-protocol website people. Even if it were an alt-protocol nothing normal supports anymore (which it isn’t, thankfully).
