You won't believe me, but I've found something sort of like that old Internet atmosphere in VRchat of all places.
I'm guessing it's because it's a "frontier" in communication that capital hasn't figured out how to monetize
Part of the old internet was the feeling of both being anonymous and having no idea what to expect out of people. Also creativity without an expectation of fame or money. So I know what you mean. The old internet thrived on stuff like ICQ and IRC. VRChat feels like a modern extension of that.
Could also be that VRChat is basically second life
