What did you miss about the old technology/media?

The inherent problem of Internet, and all modern media these days is that they've become too mainstream. When Internet had a higher barrier to entry, those more lazy or rude or otherwise harmful were automatically filtered out.

I miss the actul community of online sites. I miss rping and posting. I miss geting to discuss things and how people used to not be so rude. I can't do alot of fb groups now a day cause of the drama. I miss faning over writing and sharing things that make me happy and your friend being generally interested and happy for you. Now its all like blaaa. I also hate that online you dont matter unless you're an influencer. That took the fun out of making content. I still make it for me. but then, if you don't have a whole bunch of views and followers, people make comments about not having that and call it a waste of time. The interwebs where to have fun back in the day not a profit margin.

If you ask me AI is the final nail to the very heavy, very dark coffin.

Most probably IP address will change frenvently as the isp needs to rent IP addresses from a local ISP. But if you want to do alts I'd recommend you use a VPN.

Admittedly, I have used AI to ask pretty obscure questions. Just now I asked it about how effective maritime wifi is in regards to masking IP addresses since I have thought about making an alt account on a forum (MyFigureCollection) that is very strict on second accounts and I considered of working on a ship in the future. Before anyone asks, yes I know I can use a VPN lol.

If you can't extinguish it, you embrace it. Teachers will use it too. Education is heading downhill.

I miss Flash. Watching Strong Bad every week, playing games on the school library computers, browsing Newgrounds and seeing everything from edgelord shitposts to literal art. There was so much to explore. It's technically still possible to experience most of that with Flashpoint and Ruffle, but it's just a time capsule. Steve Jobs killed it, the internet moved on, and now we have Tiktok instead (unfortunately).
