The Internet is many times larger than I was 20+ years ago, and all the same free networks exist. The really popular ones got big and monetized.

Mine is that the ratio of websites that freely shared info vs those that did so with an underlying goal of making revenue by advertising was very large vs very small. "Boomer humor for millennials"? I'm laughing, but not for the reason you'd hoped for. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SCB@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 child) Mine is that the ratio of websites that freely shared info vs those that did so with an underlying goal of making revenue by advertising was very large vs very small. This is still true. The paid websites are simply more advertised.

So let's just let it be, and may I humbly suggest meditation as a way to clarify thinking. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SCB@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) If you're a bad communicator, that's on you permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago Yep, it would be. permalink fedilink source parent
