I Miss The Old Internet, It's Not Fun Here Anymore.

I miss the old internet, it's not fun here anymore.

Few days ago I reinstalled TikTok. Long story short i uninstalled it once again yesterday, because the amount of negativity everyone is spreading in there is unbearable.

Everything you like is wrong, everything you do is "cringy" and you are a bad person, just because you enjoy a fictional character or draw a certain way that the kids on this app doesn't approve. It's all silly, really. What happened to respecting other people? What happened to supporting other people? What happened to forming your own opinions? Why does it feels like everyone is wishing for other people's doom? Just save the negativity for the actual bad people, not kids who draw in certain artstyle you dislike. Are we really all that miserable?

And it's not only TikTok. Youtube is filled with the same people, but now there's also the AI crap and content farms. Instagram is unusable for me because of the inappropriate, explicit stuff that started showing on my reels, that just never goes away. Reddit is helpful, until a guy starts calling you names, because you asked something a random guy five years did. Don't get me started on Pinterest it's huge AI infection and that Twitter is owned by a freaking manchild naz...

I don't really know how to describe it, but everything feels either rotten or overly cleansed, artificial. You mostly see bots or people who never stepped out to see the sun. I'm not nostalgia blind, there were always people who were seaking conflicts, but it felt like the rational one's always unnumbered them. People ware overall more emphatic, they seemed to be happier. Just showing their creativity, giving each other tips, talking about their recent vocations, snapping pics of dogs. Well at least the art community were. You know, that's why I like Tumblr, it's still feels like the old internet here.

Or maybe it's just a me problem, since I am a loser who's being active only on Tumblr and Discord, who knows. Bye
