The web went from weird to slick and I kind of hate it.
I was looking at my old GeoCities page from 1997, then clicked over to a modern site. The change is huge. Back then, my page had a black background, bright green text, a tiled starfield gif, and a visitor counter. It loaded in maybe 10 seconds on dial-up. Now, everything is clean, fast, and looks the same. The cause? Big money and ads. Sites got polished to sell stuff, not to be a fun personal space. Does anyone else miss when the internet felt like a bunch of messy, homemade clubhouses?

Wait your page loaded in 10 seconds? Mine took like a full minute, easy.
