I don’t agree with the anon’s whining, but the “old internet” is indeed slowly dying, just look at reddit. Torrenting (in my experience) is also much harder and regulated in some countries.
Comment on Anon hates normies (probably)

I’m young and naive, but isn’t the old internet still there? Just muffled by large sites? They posted this on 4chan, no “normalfag” uses 4chan. By my logic, isn’t that site safe from the brainrot that is tiktok?
And it’s not like you can’t access movies for free in full resolution anymore, there are just streaming services for the “normalfags”. The point about brainlessly watching F tier propaganda filled corporate shit (series) is valid. The quality has dropped by a lot. I’d argue the news’ did as well.
And reposting/not-crediting/stealing content has always been an issue afaik.

I’m happy that I’m not in one of those countries. And I’m glad I got Lemmy, bevause of that shitshow, but the information loss from the deleted accounts are devastating.

That’d be my take as well: imo this anon is taking part of a truth and turning it into an extreme. But I’m curious as to what other people think about this :)

It really does just sound like a whiny kid. All the things he complains about literally exist or have always been there just in other forms. Modern 4chan is a far cry to what old 4chan was anyways, it’s basically mainstream at this point.
