I think this is all due to the fact that there were much less people on the internet before then there are now and also because nobody really knew how to commercialize their posting back when the internet was fresh.
>like always being pursuant of likes, shares, fame, etc
Typical human behaviour. Who doesn't want a little bit of fame? Well, maybe perhaps that one sigma male but he's just the 1%.
>But it shouldn't be too far-fetched to say that we tend to ham things up for the camera to a ridiculous extent now.
Like how someone would spread made up stories or over exaggerate minor events for attention? Yeah that always was a thing. Probably started back when Tharg told the whole tribe that he saw ten mammoths in the valley (there were only three).
It's not that I condone all the slop-posters and attention whores, I just think that they are a natural phenomenon. What the internet did was give everyone a global voice, so people naturally started exploiting that. There probably was a period when the internet was very new and strange so people weren't quite sure how to use it, but now that it has become a core element of our lives and every joe and his grandmother has access, we get to see more people trying to get a profit from posting rather than just doing it for fun.
So yeah, I kinda agree with you in a sense, but I also think that the current state of the internet is just a consequence of basic human behaviour.
I'm not a fan of a lot of the modern trends going around due to the internet. A part of me feels that it's weird how people would do crap like record tiktoks in public, but a part of me also realizes that perhaps it's not too bad. We've evolved to this stage and there is no going back, so we just gotta wait and see what this all turns into.
>But, I never got to experience the early years of the social media scene, so I might be talking out my ass here.
Shit happens fast doesn't it. One day it was just your typical middle east business. The next day it became a full blown war. Then US got involved. Who knows what to expect tomorrow.
I think it's gonna be pointless. I can't see why someone would want to enable that, unless as a joke. Comment sections would just get filled with a ton of random images cluttering up space and making it harder for someone to read the comments.
Sometimes you have to leave places/people/things behind and move on. Sometimes you just feel like you've outgrown something or that there is somewhere else better to be. Life goes on.
I can relate to that rn. The reality of today's job market is that it's completely fucked. That is due to the internet making it extremely easy for people to apply to positions and also for companies to look for employees therefore meaning that there is an overwhelming amount of candidates applying to the same position. The strategy here is to send as much applications as possible cuz most companies will either reject or ghost you. Keep in mind that it takes an average of 50-200 applications to find one job. So if you currently have less than that then you need to start applying more.
Me neither. I will focus all my attention on this post.
I wonder what my last post is gonna be like. Perhaps "Ha ha, what are you gonna do with my doxx? Airstrike me? LOL!"
That's gonna be around Saturday morning for me, but I'll see if I can join next time
And even in your dreams, the anime frogposting website still haunts you. Let it go. Close this chapter. Soyfags won, this is the end.

Two questions.

Lol same.
This is the work of a true patriot.

Or rebel against it.
Do you have any irl friends you can hang out with? Spending more time with real humans can be a great remedy to feelings of loneliness.
Yeah, I also think it's still far from actually replacing anybody. But who knows what the future holds.
The user count has been dropping last time I checked so makes sense I guess.
