I’ve seen an awful lot of pushback against “the Internet used to be better” lately, but you’re just flat out wrong. I’m trying to do research on a landscaping issue right now and it’s frustratingly impossible. 10 or 15 years ago it would have been a Google search and reading a few forums. That was objectively better than today’s experience where I kind of want to throw my phone against a wall and I have no better information now than when I started looking half an hour ago.
