Back when having a computer was a requirement for accessing internet it was better, it filtered people who used it without intention, the ADHD doomscrollers, you would have to make a conscious decision to sit down and do something, wait 5 minutes for the thing to turn on and another 5 for whatever you wanted to interact with to open. It filtered the cattle. Nothing is sacred anymore, you can access the internet without even thinking, no wonder there's so much dribble.
