It started going to shit in 2000.

Sooo, what you're saying is that the 2000s was a boring ass, war-filled, generation with 0 personality that everyone will look over and forget? Kind of like the 40s of the previous century?

No. 2000-2007, like the 60s, was a time period with great pop culture that was somewhat overshadowed by the Vietnam War/Iraq war.

I notice that when people on this board say "I miss the early 2000s", they tend to lump 2004-2007ish into that definition, despite those being mid-2000s.

Is "early 2000s" just easier to say than "early-mid 2000s"?

The user-friendliness of the internet was its downfall.

When people refer to the "golden age" of the web, they refer to the time when it was mostly non-normies using it, because normies had no reason to use it. Meanwhile we were all browsing our obscure forums, edgy comedy sites, and playing vidya. The most normies did was send emails or look at online catalogs.

Social media particularly is what started the collapse, it literally reeled the normies in. And soon places like ebaums, youtube, and eventually 4chan reached memetic status and transformed into platforms to generate revenue. People started making vlogs for the sole purpose of generating popularity and money, instead of creating endearing videos they pour their soul into. Memes became forced, they no longer arose naturally as the abstract comedic devices they were meant to be, but rather became warped by the normie masses who were entertained, intrigued, but did not fully understand. Our sacred spaces were desecrated, and we've descended into a whirlwind of post-irony and nihilism.

I remember the vast potential of the internet. I remember reading something late 90's early 2000's that talked about how the internet was going to be this great frontier where the idea was king; where race, gender, sexuality etc were irrelevant since you were just a digital persona.

Maybe it was idealistic, but there just seemed like so much potential there.

I really miss the days where it was just forums/messengers, and there was an unspoken rule that you do not put yourself out there to be seen by anyone. You would actually take the time to get to know someone before revealing any form of personal information, but mostly you would just know people on an alias basis.

Now I can look into any faggots life and it's all there to see neatly on a web page that they had done themselves. This is where all the SJW nonsense has come from, with all their victim hood. They simply cannot distinguish between real life and the internet anymore, so calling them a cunt or even telling them to end themselves is the same to them as if you would have walked up to them and said it to their face while being physically imposing.

Amazing how times have changed.

>>26302665

I dont care how old you are. The fact is, if you're american, everything went to shit after 9/11.

Anyone that tells you about the awesome years after 2001 is a kid.

>>26306537

i only take a picture of something if i think it's cool.
people taking so many photos of themselves/their friends = they think they're cool i.e. have such a high opinion of themselves that they think that many people want to see what they look like and what they do on a DAILY BASIS.
the fucking ego that these people have blows my mind. i'm completely against censorship of the internet but at this point when i look at how gluttonous and unapologetically narcissistic/ egotistic SO MANY people are, i start to think that maybe it would be a good thing if we limited this shit. the human population just can't help themselves, they're animals.

>>26307093
>unapologetically narcissistic/ egotistic SO MANY people are

Just imagine. A lot of people where already egoistic before, with parents telling them that they're special and so on. Now, add a sprinkle dose of facebook likes giving them validation, and you get extremely narcissistic people.

The worse part, in order to even feel more "important", they try to act unique but they end up acting and thinking as the same as other people. It's fucking horrible. People share photos not for fun, but for likes. People share jokes/memes not for fun, but for likes. And the absolute worst of all: People CREATE content not because they have a true passion in it, but just for likes.

It ruins all the fun.

It's not the 'big words' that make this edgy you faggot, it's how the creator of the shitty cringfest misuses those big words and phrases.

the smart phone ruined everything

Normiephones allowed normals to shit the internet up 24/7 be they at home or in da club.

Now 50% of the internet is nothing but selfies and vanity. The internet used to be our escape from the real world but normals made it into an extension of it instead.

>no crank dat

smartphones and social media were the game-changer. back in 2005-6 having a dumbphone, MSN or AIM messenger and a horribly-decorated myspace profile was the extent of your online social life.

Tested your theory, close. But it worked out to 16 for me

>>26302665
9/11 or 11/9 didn't change shit for the rest of the world apart from bullshit airplane restrictions. You self-centered Amerifat.

Also, things change, hunter gatherer brains don't like change that much, suck it up.

>the bass in that clip of Lose Yourself
Out of fucking control.

I remember once during that Whenever, Wherever video by Shakira I rubbed my dick on the tv. I was like eight and didn't know anything about sex but I just knew I needed to do it.

>>26304677
I believe this is whole-heartedly accurate. Because when it reached 2007 (when I was 13) I remember those being the best fucking years ever.

>>26302665
Things hit a peak in 2006, since then it's been a downward spiral.

>Back then, people would take pictures for memories and fun.
>Nowadays, the first thing that comes into their mind is a "like" on Facebook or Instashit.

Oh man, this.

I like taking pictures and videos sometimes for memories. But now people, even my family, are hesitant sometimes to take vids because they think I'm gonna post it on some social media page.

I dont know how to explain it... people just think they gotta be perfect for the camera because thousands of people will be seeing the pics/vids, even though I just wanna store them for personal memories.

It wasn't even that long ago that you were encouraged to stay anonymous on the internet and avoid giving your real identity except in certain things, like your business website or something.

Now, people look at you weird if you don't have a FB or whatever.

>>26302665
The feels hit me. Anyways... it can't be helped.

>>26302665
>Anyone feel that the 00s were kind of like an "updated" version of the late 90s
Not me. I feel that the 00s were darker than the 90s.

>>26304425
2000 was still a good year
2001 is when things really started to go downhill (and not just because of 9/11)

>>26304677
It's not just me then. I turned 12 in 2000 and it was the best year of my life. The year after that was when the world started going downhill in my opinion (this may have something to do with me becoming a teenager and hitting puberty in 2001).

>smartphones, especially the iPhone
>Facebook, Twitter, other social media becoming mainstream
>the Internet in general starting to become mainstream (and ending - if it could be called that - in 2010 or 2011)
>video games becoming mainstream (started in early 2000s)
>The Big Bang Theory on TV
>Project Chanology
So probably it's mostly the appropriation of the nerd culture or whatever you want to call it.

I predict that just in a couple of years, people will be (unironically) nostalgic about the early (or even mid-) 2010s.

>>26313987
Now that I think about it, the late-'00s economic crash was maybe even a bigger factor of things becoming worse.

I think Resident Evil 4 was the last great video game.

00s didn't have a distinct personality like the 90s, 80s, and 70s did.

>>26314148
>00s didn't have a distinct personality
Or maybe it's still too early to judge.

>>26314251
2010 was 6 years ago. All I see is shit with indigested corn kernel shells and those girl pants with the zippers along the ass crack that didn't even survive all of 2003.

In the mid to late 00s reality came into the internet with the popularization of social media. Suddenly everyone wanted to exist online and did things in reality to post on there just to share with people they didn't know. The internet has crushed almost all semblances of socialization. In a way I can't exactly find the words to explain the internet ruined reality and vice versa.

It's a shame. The problem is the people. The more people that like something or get into it, the more it'll be ruined because it has to cater to a larger and larger demographic. Eventually it loses the passion and soul it once had, like the mysterious, limitless possibilities the internet had when we were all stupid kids. Sure nostalgia plays a big part in it but I can't help but feel like things were so much better and less disingenuous back then.

20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s 80s, 90s all of these decades were unique in their own way. Early 00s was also good but like OP said it was updated version of the 90s. 2007 was the final nail in the coffin for the society as we knew it

>>26315050
Without social media, we would have the same problem, but on TV, thanks to reality shows.

'00s: goths, emos, scene kids, Japan kids, "nerds" (yeah, some of these started before 2000, but didn't become popular until in or after that year)
'10s: "nerds", hipsters

>>26302665
Well, that's market crash for you. Things were going better until everything went to shit.

it is because technology progressed at a speed of light. 2010 and 2007 is only 3 years difference but look how much shit has changed its like going from 1990 into 2020

>>26304588
i feel retarded
why do i enjoy these type of 360p/480p low quality early-mid 00's videos? they feel so special

>>26315922
Do you really think that? VR will mess you up even more and you hardly live in reality at all.

>>26316267
feels good, man


kebble
