Hunting For The Old School Internet

Art By Yihan

I think one of the reasons I created this blog is interact with the Web differently. It is an attempt to get away from the social media feeds and constant stream of news and ads.

At some point I realized that the main 2 sites I visited multiple times a day were X and YouTube. Instagram was high on that list until I deleted it off my phone a few weeks ago. But, the act of trying to avoid these platforms made me ask “where the hell do I go online now?”

The question felt silly. The Internet is HUGE!….but where is it?

The fact of the matter is that now most communication happens in the digital gates of major sites and social media platforms.

These last few days I’ve been scanning through old blogrolls, forums, and more to find the old Internet I grew up on. Real people running real websites.
