worse, the fun things they had supplanted were never coming back. Forums were depopulated; blogs were shut down.
I get what he's saying. In the beginning the net opened the doors to self-expression. Lots of people had fun playing around, exploring, lots of new toys. Then conventions and concentrations arrived, and it BLEW UP. There's still a lot of personal, fun stuff out there, but it's harder to find.
As of 2015, PER DAY: 50,000 new -Wordpress- websites; ~ 3 million new posts. Good luck digging through THAT slush pile. https://expandedramblings.com/index.php/wordpress-statistics/ https://expandedramblings.com/index.php/wordpress-statistics...
I find new, interesting websites by pouring through aggregators and topical forums (still out there). Takes time.
