This is quite the take.
Compare what’s possible today because of smartphones that didn’t exist in 2006. Huge populations of the world have internet access and technology that would’ve been unthinkable 25 years ago. Half of HN is getting rich because of smartphones.
Yes, parts of the culture change that’s resulted from smartphones kinda sucks. But “mostly regressive” feels like a stretch.
