@penryu@hachyderm.io @netopwibby@social.coop Or, to put it in a clearer way: when people are nostalgic over the Old Web, they are not being nostalgic over Microsoft's monopolist practices with Internet Explorer, or jumping from free web host to free web host, or dealing with the horrendous pricing many countries had to deal with to access the Internet. They're nostalgic for the community spirit that existed despite all of that, and that has become increasingly harder to maintain as the corporate machine grew in power, scope, and influence.
