I will patiently wait for the real internet to return.
RSS/Blogs/Forums.
This is the only way for archiving and communicating sustainable information repos which will serve people without a middleman.
Creating federated silos with "modern" UX is serving only the owners of this SaaS hell.
It is logical for those type of businesses to optimize for "engagement" and profit.
- boplicity 5y agoMany of those things are still there. I've run an old-school style forum since 2009, and it is still going strong. Many of the people using it are very different than the HN crowd: non-tech savvy, relatively old, mostly women relatively low-income. The design has barely changed since it was first created, though I've incrementally added useful features (and not useful features) specifically geared towards helping the community.
