The emergence of business aspect on the web was the main mistake IMO. But it's probably a common pattern in every space. It's true that it shifts focus on being viewed rather than expressing or documenting something you care about in the form you prefer. In the old days it was a natural average.. lots of websites from classical to weird, on all kinds of topics, without a lot of structure. Everytime there was a lightness aspect. Add Google/SEO on top of that and everything starts to conform to shallow metrics. I'd pay a bit every month just to have tiny, light, non marketed websites.
