>>107579266like 2008-2012. personal websites/blogs were holding out and "web 2.0" was actually good. billions of retard shitskins didn't have internet access.t. 36 year old boomer

>>107579266Here? About 1995, would be slightly earlier in Ameriburgerland.
>>107579266When even the most degenerate stuff would have its own .com site
