because the world was a better place and millennials were around to watch it all get ripped away from us
>>
>>108018681
yeah, Millennial is essentially 1980, Gen X is 1979.
>>
>>108018646
Millennials were pretty chill. Zoomers are so uptight.

The net was always shit, it was just easier to find interesting non-corporate things. Millennials are mostly shit, especially this arrogant
> we ruled the net
fake history. Millennials made angelfire websites and harassed each other on forums, basically the precursors to the modern web (3rd party platforms and attention economy).
>>
>>108019008
>Millennial is essentially 1980
Looks like the official definition is 1981. If you judged from this website you would think the millennial cutoff is like 1989 since most of the millennials here seem to be 90s millennials and sometimes late 80s. I remember I knew a guy born in 1981 who wasn't sure if he was a millennial or gen x.

>>108018646
The internet was built by boomers and genx. Milennials have very little to do with the creation of any of it. Their era is one of social media marketing facebook and similar shit. In fact the millenial generation has been notable in one area only the complete failure to produce any new original cinema, music, art, theatre, poetry, video games, literature, philosopy or technology

I don't remember any milennials working in AOL or Compuserv

Zoomers are just Millennials without the sex and drugs

>without the sex and drugs
so that's why they so uptight? it would make sense I mean I did a lot of drugs too I think it builds character, if you survive it
>>
>>108018646
The internet no longer exists, so this statement is redundant.
>>
if you are "pudgy" at 15 when your metabolism is at its fastest it will ever be, there is no way you arent a fat fuck out of puberty
>>
>>108018646
You mean boomers and gen-x and millennials were just children
>>
The reason why the internet is so degenerate and full of gooners these days is because millennials were exposed to the most degenerate shit in mainstream entertainment where everything was about sex and drugs. It's no coincidence that the internet has the gooner porn addict problems it has now. And was these retarded millennials who didn't even know how to parent their children that allowed children to be exposed to it all from their laziness and shit parenting that gave the government an excuse to monitor everyone with IDs "for the safety of children".

>>108020050
It's crazy how this graph correlates with the year where Internet really started to be shit.

>>108018646
Every time I see a bvck broken millenial on 4chin I promise myself to never be a whiny faggot about next generation getting on the internet. Sincerely kill yourself, OP.

Gen X here. I like broccolis better, particularly the fine gentlemen that Elon hired for doge.

the scariest part is that it's not even at 50% yet.

millennials didn't rule shit, and millennials are mostly mindless consumers.

millennials also didn't invent the phrase "eternal september"

true
when young we were raised by TV. our boomer elders watched TV all the time. grew up to be mindless cattle.

those are literally all straight from the system itself though
how's that for a new philosophy? faggot

Idk man everyone knows puberty does weird stuff. I weigh 10 lbs less than I did when I was 17 even as my shoulders have broadened and muscle mass has gone up.

>>108018646
Mass Censorship is the new norm pushed by advertisers controlled by political interests in WEF to turn the world into a communist land and then now pushed by the leftist communists to make it the law of the land.

Commies cannot exist with different people with different opinions. Fundamental human differences is a threat to the western Marxist ideology
>>
>>108018646
As a Zoomer, I strongly agree.
>>
the net was better under the rule of gen x
millennials brought culture wars and politics into goddamn everything

Millennial here
It is officially 1981 because we graduated in the year 2000.
My entire teen life, the reason the called us millennials was for that very reason.
Class of 2000

most reddit mods, linux project leaders and most people in position of power are xannaxlials, they're the ones actively hurting most communities and making the web a worse place.
I don't particularly miss the early-00s as everything I did back then I continue to do now (same forum, same websites, etc), I'm not sure why people stick to shitty centralized platform moderated by suicidal freaks, the "old" web still exists...
>>
>>108019524
Elder Millennials (1981-1986) and Late Gen X (aka. 1977-1980) are the ones that defined the "culture" of the early Internet post-90s.
Otherwise you're pretty much right, they didn't lay the groundwork for the World Wide Web, but they made an impact on what we have today with our current platforms.

Hopefully someday india creates its own "Chinese firewall" and segments themselves from the rest of the internet.

true, mostly content and file sharing, BELL AT&T built the infrastructure. IP should be abolished.
