Ultimately, the web will revert to where it was before full text search harvested and profited from all the curated indexes of content — and, bluntly, we did fine back then! It was a lot less shitty of a web than we have now :) And it’ll be a lot easier to be open with others when someone can’t just full-text search their way to our bulletin board (forums used to be called that, since they derived their core structure from BBSes!) to hate on us. Will be harder to use the web for problem-solving in esoteric corner cases, because you’ll have to find the right enthusiast community and jump through some hoops to sign up and become a trusted member. Can’t wait, honestly.
