Look at how objectively worse everything is.
Cable cutting doesn't exist anymore. You used to pay X for cable, now you pay that same X for various streaming services, which requires managing a half dozen different platforms simultaneously. So I guess it's neat that you don't have a $80 cable bill now, you just have 7x$12 bills. The old problem of "never anything on to watch when you want to watch it" is replaced with "the things you actually want to watch are not covered by your subscription"
Everything is monetized and less and less people are just contributing for the community. You're either paying a premium for what you used to get for free or you're being assaulted with eye-watering ads in every bit of visual real estate.
Pointing out the above fact will have dorks on gamefaqs.gamespot.com tell you that you should be using various adblockers, missing the point altogether
Forums are dying and reddit is taking over. do you want to discuss anything, or do you just want a community of clueless morons updooting content that they think is good? Because that's what you're getting.
If you're in the EU, I hope you enjoy getting a pop up to accept or reject cookies on literally every website you click on, only for that consent to be completely ignored later on.
Even porn sites have taken a hit. Is amateur porn even a thing anymore? Everyone is an influencer. All porn content is curated for search engine algorithms.
You want a game guide? I hope you like it split up into separate webpages for every item you want to collect which link to individual youtube videos that you still need to read anyway.
Searching for things on search engines is a mess of ads. You want to find the best gaming monitor? Well here's a bunch of companies that paid google to advertise their monitors, that's what you wanted right?
What the fuck is up with Amazon product names? Why is the actual product name a continuous string of keywords? comfortable chair ergonomic gaming chair back support pediatric gaming chair customizable chair for gaming
Every article on every website is designed for algorithms to read rather than human beings. Oh you want help with photoshop to fix your picture? I think the answer you were looking for is "Photoshop is a tool that lets you edit images..."
Who can tell what the good and useful content on youtube is anymore? You don't get to see the things you subscribe to, you don't get to see how many downvotes something got. Have an automotive issue? Need help fixing your oil filter? Well I guess you just need to watch the video that was primarily designed with the goal of making the most people click on it. "Pro Mechanic can't BELIEVE what this CLUELESS customer did to his Bugatti Veyron". Just take this content and eat it bitch.
