Don’t get me wrong, I love the internet. I’ve spent most of my life in it but sometimes, almost always lately, I wish we would come back to the pre social networks era. These services are so frictionless that it makes most people say stupid shit and fight without any pre cognition of their permanently on the record declarations. The requirement of deploying your own website was a good entry barrier and we still had a lot of dumb, fun, crazy sites. It just wasn’t a privilege accessible to most.
