I don't mean to say that those pursuits weren't fun or worth pursuing. My point is a lot of time has passed since "chat rooms" and "browser games" were all the rage and also that "fun" is not an objective measure and depends on your perspective. There are a lot of things that I found "fun" when I was younger that I simply don't or would not anymore (like logging in once a day to a BBS, pre-internet, to play a text-based RPG). Also, the things that younger people today find fun online aren't things that I, now a middle-aged man, would enjoy. As far as I know from my distant, curmudgeonly viewpoint, kids today are still having fun online, be it on snapchat, discord, fortnite, or whatever. It's just that, because of my age and life experience, I can't find those to be fun in the same way.
