Reasons Why the Old Internet Was So Much Better
(My Opinion)The items in this list have been selected by the author of the list for you to vote and comment on.
The Top Ten
1 Most websites had personalities and customization
Especially on MySpace where you could customize your page by learning CSS coding.
2 YouTube was a place for fun and creativity
And now it's just a dumpster fire with the crappy new layout, the 2019 COPPA update, double ads, and you can't even say what you want to say anymore.
3 Instead of Facebook, we had MySpace as the Social Media king
MySpace > Facebook.
4 We had no Twitter dumpster fires of offended people
I kinda want to go back to the olden internet, Waiting like 10 minutes for AOL to boot up is better than SJWs offended about stupid crap.

6 The games we played with heavy nostalgia (even if most of them don't hold up)
Things only become nostalgic after years.
7 We loved to dislike George W. Bush
8 Only a few trolls, but hardly anyone got easily offended (Except for the Hot Coffee controversy)
9 Many Nostalgic YouTubers such as FRED, Smosh, AVGN, LonelyGirl15, and many more
10 Windows XP
Windows 7 was also pretty good.
