> How was dotcom era a bubble?
Look at NASDAQ between 1995 and 2005. I’ve never seen anyone claiming that it was not a bubble. Sure, some companies survived (as some always do, a bubble is not the end of the world), but a lot of people took a bath.

That is not what a bubble is. A bubble is over-valuation of a bunch of stocks, when all investors want to hop on the same train. The fad is the companies’ stocks, not (necessarily) their products.
Nobody was claiming that the Internet was a fad in ~2000, just that investors were so eager that ridiculous startups with dubious business models got tons of money dumped on them for no reason, and that the expectations were out of line with reality, even for successful big companies.
