I think the challenge is finding these rare, valuable places in a sea of noise. Gone are the days that you'd stumble on them, with Google et al keeping you blasting down freeways with no chance of turning into a quiet cul-de-sac where you might see the perfect home for sale, or at least rent it for a while. I still find value and joy on the internet, but it's much rarer and typically the hold-overs from a previous era, or tenuous things like following a handful of YTers while ad blocking still works.
