With the evergrowing flow of users, normality became the expectation. The internet bar club disappeard to become real life 2.0, and in real life, you are supposed to use money, and inner jokes don't work. We went from "you shouldn't post personal information to the internet" to "If you don't put your real life profile on the internet, you are a weirdo who tries to escape real life". The new world has been claimed by the old. Though, in an easier way than in real life, you can become a cyberhermit. Leave social media, and even though there are a lot less people out of here, if you find active forums or chatrooms, you'll find some everlasting internet culture. It was never really gone, just got hidden by money and large scale hypersocializers. Pleroma is a fediverse service where there are way less people than here, but it is more "childish" (make me think of very early 2ch-4chan). You have also misskey, though they mostly speak japanese there. For anon culture, you have still IRC, and some little open chatrooms through the fediweb. Though it's hard to find similar places to early 4ch that aren't nazi paradises. Good luck out there!
