@devils well, it's simple
if the entire world is handed to you at your convenience, is there any incentive to learn?
the big players in Web 2.0 made things super easily accessible with simple tools, no need to learn the very basics of making a website.
and if you don't have your own intrinsic motivation, you don't really have a will to learn then.
@devils thankfully, what I mentioned is slowly reversing.
more and more people are realizing that the convenience came at a cost, like that things might just disappear at the whims of investors.
more personal websites are appearing again, especially after Twitter started its slow demise.
