I didn’t know how to browse the web in 1994, either.
Or, more to the point, once I poked around randomly for a while, finding things like the last page (you have reached the end of the Internet), etc., I stopped browsing, and started either searching like I do now or visiting bookmarked sites like I do now or following trustworthy recommendations like I do now.
The big differences between now and then are no more USENET (really good sources of trustworthy links, at least in some groups) and commercially focused search results.
It did and still does take time to search through search results to find the good ones.
Back then, just browsing, following random links, was entertainment, not really useful.
Now, it just isn’t really useful.
