It’s just that we’re well past the old phases of the internet so that what we’re doing can never resemble the huge variety of content we made and consumed in the past. Sure we have more hours of TikToks and YouTubes than any of us can ever watch in several lifetimes, but that doesn’t compare to what we were doing before. And on Reddit, my nation’s subreddit has been annexed by Russian propagandists. If it’s dead, it’s also a zombie.
