The only thing holding us back from having the internet experience is ourselves.
“Nothing about the web has changed that prevents us from going back. If anything, it’s become a lot easier. We can return.“
This from Molly White, in a piece called ‘We can have a different web.’
We can set up websites for cheap, using a multitude of tools. We can create directories, or field guides, or fan pages for anything we want.
We can link to each others things from our websites, our newsletters, our DMs, our Discords or forums.
It might feel slower, since techbros at social media giants have been feeding you the Kool-Aid that without them you’ll turn to dust, but that just ain’t true.
