I really liked how honest your maniesto was. I do kind of disagree with the old web revival thing, though. I don't think these people are trying to bring it back, I think they're just creating a space for themselves and potential people who want out of social media to just hang out and interact the way they want to, a little community. I can't disagree with them for making the change they want to see

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I absolutely love your website too, the color scheme reminds me of my very first site it's crazy.. ALSO LOVE THE GLOSSY BUTTONS... I definitely feel the same about valuing the same things, we just went about it in different ways! I kind of wanted my page to look like some random DSi app with the little clock and pixelated text.. i need to add more random gizmos

We do have the same opinion on the topic then. In general, over the course of the years spent here, I have noticed the occasional veiled elitism regarding this matter, looking down upon whoever still uses social media and all; I think everyone should indulge in self-expression and find community in non-corp spaces
In general, as someone who started browsing "late", I find it odd to see people with even less internet "experience" than me saying they prefer the old web, when they couldn't witness it (for the best, maybe). Is it a matter of mere aesthetic values? Is it a desire to build a third system? I am very curious about this.
Honestly, a lot is probably aesthetic values, I guess. I'm not really sure. There are a lot of people who want to seem like OGs to fit into a group while kind of just sporting a surface level aesthetic of said thing. But also I guess there's nothing wrong with loving things you weren't here for. And maybe they do think the old way has potential! who knows
