Yes, the rise of smartphones, and to a lesser extent social media, has sent the internet's fun factor into a death spiral

I almost consider it a privilege that I got to experience the internet from the early/mid 90's onward.

It was so fun. Younger people won't believe that there actually was a time when nobody took the internet that seriously, and it was basically a really fancy toy. Nobody treated it like real life. As long as you weren't making threats, or doing any blatantly illegal shit, nobody cared what you said online,

I remember getting hours of entertainment off of a freaking Mad Libs game on AOL. It was somewhere in the 2010's when I feel the internet really fell off.

The internet was the best from the early 00s to maybe like 2016, but its prime was definitely like 2000 - 2010ish.

i will say the mid-late 2010s was a high watermark for zoomer flavored internet culture, but the broader internet really descended into the walled garden hellscape it is now by 2015
