AI also killed Reddit (the API changes were motivated by early GPT iirc) So so SO much good stuff is gone now and much of what's left is AI cruft | ||

That’s entropy for you. Society is a Ship Theseus; each generation ripping off planks and nailing their own in place. Having been online since the late 80s (am only mid 40s...grandpa worked at IBM, hooked me and my siblings up with the latest kit on the regular) I have read comments like this over and over as the 90s internet, 00s internet, now the 2010s state of the "information super highway" has been replaced. Tbh things have felt quite stagnant and "stuck" the last 20 years. All the investment in and caretaking of web SaaS infrastructure and JS apps and jobs for code camp grads made it feel like tech had come to a standstill relative to the pace of software progress prior to the last 15-ish years. | ||

Well, Reddit surely didn't help the issue with how it was all handled. | ||
