@neauoire I dunno, I realized the internet was way less interesting a few years ago, even before the pandemic. It may be because of the rise of video, or the rise of chat apps, both of them making interesting content and conversation unsearchable. It may also been that the new generation of internet users are actually aware about the shortcomings of sharing on the web, and self-censor itself, keeping all the interesting stuff private.
@neauoire Also the conspiracy theory of the internet being empty described this way: "Large proportions of the supposedly human-produced content on the internet are actually generated by artificial intelligence networks in conjunction with paid secret media influencers in order to manufacture consumers for an increasing range of newly-normalised cultural products."
The "paid secret media" is stupid (why keep it a secret, it's useless) but the rest is pretty real. Everything/one is a brand.
