I'm with CmdrTaco. Hacker News from the front page is way way WAY too much. I browse Hacker News through skimfeed.com. Whoever is responsible for that does a really good job combing through Hacker News and surfacing stuff I'm interested in.
On the whole, it really sucks that the Internet these days is basically what cable TV was 20 years ago. Lots and lots and LOTS of emotionally-manipulative video broken up by increasingly-obnoxious ads.
The primarily text-based Internet that I really enjoyed using seems to be getting smaller and smaller (or harder and harder to find). Can't say I'm surprised, though. The bill was going to need to be paid, eventually.
- debatem1 3y agoThe funny thing is that while I remember really enjoying a lot of things on the old web, I don't really remember how I found them. My guess is by either following a link and digging or by talking with people and hearing what they liked. I don't think I've had a word of mouth website recommendation in ten years.
