You will never fucking go back to this.

>inb4 you can do this now.
It's not the same, you were young, doing this now is pathetic.

The mid 00s were a good time. A shame I couldn't appreciate it back then due to personal problems.

The internet, easily. You had a massive explosion of content on the web after the late 90s, but it was still so new that big corporations hadn't really figured out how to exploit it efficiently yet. Social media was in its infancy and nobody really trusted it, the law of the internet was "don't share any personal info" which is so fucking bizarre to think about in this modern age of people putting their whole life story up on facebook for people to peruse at their leisure. So the result was you had more and more cool places to hang out on the internet with more media hosting springing up every week and file sharing networks multiplying like mushrooms. It was a golden age to be a pirate. 2007 is when it all started going to shit.
