2000s are the new 80s. Rose tinted glass nostalgia that doesn't even resembles those times
90s are the last identifiable decade
>>219267881Shut the fuck up the 2000s were awesome
>>2192678812000s in Azerbaijan was probably wildly different from 2000s in the West.
>>219268191only the first half
>>219267881I don't know what that was like in ur cunt but it was cool here. I miss nu metal and emo girls.
>>219268191>>219268197>>2192687172000s were fantastic in my country (fastest growing country for 4 years in the row) but nostalgia wildly exaggerates it
>>2192678812000 - 2008 was my country's peakIt's been downhill since then
>thirdies on xitter and youtube comment section when see a hi tech gadget from past decades that only owned by 4% of firsties >ooh this why older decades is our peak saaar
>>219267881Remember when everyone wore this back in the 2000s?
>>219269092You just weren't with it.
>>219269092>AI samefaceYikes
remember when like half the male population had that smash mouth singer/guy fieri spiky hair
>>219267881you have no idea how it was good if you don't lived that era in korea>Flash games and animations>less politic on internet>better music and film>online games>domestic education comics and animations>arcade in front of stationary store>everyone had PC in home>food was cheaper and had better qualityhttps://youtu.be/T65cjz0cr8Q?si=Ub7Gz14p6v6m6p2l
>>219268191only the early 2000s
>>219268794It doesn't matter what you think about the 2000s in your country. The point is you said the nostalgia doesn't resemble those times, and it's because the nostalgia is for 2000s in the West, not in Azerbaijan. That's why it doesn't resemble those times to you.
>>219267881Things only went south in 2007, because all you niggers got smartphones and social media and shat up the internet.
>>219272116trvth exterminatvs
>>219268191No they weren't. I lived through them and they fucking sucked ass.
>>219268191Cozy memories playing vidiya with neighborhood friends and running around outside playing jailbreak or airsoft wars. Wish I could RETVRN
Windows XP was the peak, Win 7 was still good, 10 and after is the downfall
>>219272116At least there were no Indians on the Internet back then.
>>219272116I blame this.
>>219268248All of it was awesome. Shit started going downhill after 2012-ish.
you know you fags could just leave your phones in the car and go drink with your bros at the old paper mill or whatever
My first PC, 1997 compaq. Still works but current year monitors don't accept an analog signal, last time I turned it on was 2008 so don't know if it would boot up. Probably has quake, half life, blood, hard truck 2 and earth 2150 installed
>>219272726Mine was old 2001 FujitsuI miss ngl
Everyone completely misunderstood my pointI didn't mean that 2000s wasn't good, my point was that 2000s wasn't THAT good. It's like boomers with 80s. Frutiger Aero wasn't everywhere, there still was brainrot memes, there still were problems. 2000s definitely was better 90s (and I will die on that hill) and surely better than 2010s and 2020s but there were still problems2000s wasn't peak of the civilization, we just are in the downfall
>>219273677>2000s definitely was better 90s80s people looking forward to the 90s:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mdju-W_ZAnw&t=78s90s people bragging about living in the 90s:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Fxil2QY0wEAnd everyone after the 90s wishes they were in the 90s.Feel free to die.
>>219272726did not save a monitor
>>219267881We had the regular american shit with a euro twist. It was really comfy. The outfits seemed normal back then, now they look distinctly 2000s. https://youtu.be/36lzJjJiT6kAlso picrel is a replica of what I imagine to be all of our (westies) rooms back then. It’s in some museum in Zagreb and the post got a lot of updoots on reddit.
>>219274686The number 9 is a stolen back numberplate from one if these. Every teen in Zagreb used to do this for kekks
>>219273677In your country
I think cool kids moved onto early 2010s frutiger aero windows 7 aesthetics or something
>>219275224Frutiger aero is still late 2000s
>>219269629I did and humanity did indeed peak there.
Will the 2020s be the 80s of the 2040s? How the fuck will it be remembered like that? Or will everyone universally agree 2000s was the last "great culture decade" and everything has been going downhill since, with the raging 20s specially sucking?
>>219268191>>219272423>>219269991>>219272116faggots the only reason you remember that time fondly is because you were a young boy who didnn't have any care in the world except playing videogames all dayKids born today will remember the early 2030s as the peak before conveniently everything went downhill in the 2040s, about the time they got into college and/or got a job
I'm in my 40s I wasn't a child in the early 2000s but it was objectively goated because social media hadn't ruined everybody's brains yet. Everything after 2010 is decline
>>219275662>>219274007
Music, games, movies and TV series were better in the 2000s. Other than that I don't miss that decade at all. I don't romanticize being yelled at for using mobile internet for 5 minutes. And the 2010s are basically still going on since not much has changed
>>219275604>Brooo remember when ChatGPT was dumb and you had to carefully curate every prompt BROOOO kids these days don't know those struggles bro
>>219275780AI is the difference between 2010s and 2020s
>>219275780>the 2010s are basically still going on since not much has changedLOL Maybe in your backwater shithole, but the real world has moved on since then. Today is nothing like 2010 'o munno ha cagnat
>>219275847No Serbro is right the 2010s were way more different from the 2000s than the 2020s are to the 2010s>'o munno ha cagnatStop LARPing cringelord
>>219275847The 2020s are the 2010s but cringier and gayer
>>219275780>Music, games, movies and TV series were better in the 2000sAgree with everything EXCEPT with TV series.(Non-cartoon/anime) Shows were ass back then, except for Breaking Bad.TV shows did not get good until the 2010's, and had only gotten better.
Why is everyone ignoring my comfy posts?
>>219268191The feeling of the late 90s sort of dragged on until September 10th 2001. A day later the 2000s would instantly turn to shit. Instant 21st century hell. Then the 2010s became the the shitty version of the 2000s. And the 2020s are the shitty version of the 2010s. That's why you have the feeling that everything is soulless for the past 25 years. This will go on for a very long time, as the 2030s no doubt will just be the shitty version of the 2020s.Finanon is right (>>219268157) the 90s were the last identifiable decade indeed.The 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s all had their own style, their own identity, their own soul. After 2001 there's none of that. All just grey and black cars, McDonald's buildings that look like offices, and slabs of glass phones that everyone looks at 12 hours a day. That's what everything exactly will continue to look like for the next 50 years. Just uniform, minimalist, and globohomo. And you WILL eat the bugs too.
>>219276010The pic in >>219274686 looks nice, except for the bisexual lighting.
>>219275975Yes and more woke>>219275921Staje zitt
>>219274686I really like this btw
>>219275662I had no friends and rarely ever got to go anywhere besides baseball practice, but the 2000's were more relaxed because the population was smaller and more of the adults around town were the chill working class type because you could buy a house back then for a reasonable price.
>>219274771>>219274686kino
>>219275662Kindly consult the chart please
>>219275780Music had already gone downhill at the start of the decade. Games were at their peak at the time and TV got better after the 2000s for a large part but has started going downhill now.
>>219272116True.
America is
>>219277492music had already gone downhill at the advention of song reproduction technologies
>>219272372You’re brown, living in an olive-skinned country. From Bangladesh or some shit. Your parents went to Portugal to subvert it in the name of global Jewry, although they don’t consciously understand that yet. Woke hasn’t yet set in. You’re unattractive to the general school body, boring, weird, and dumb. People laugh and mock you. You wonder “why am I here, the 00s suck” truth is, you never belonged in Europe and never will.
>>219277492>>219275780Vidya and internet were at their peak in the 00s and that's not even up for debate
>>219268191Up until 2006, that was the turning point
>>219275662Maybe shit always sucked in Argentina, but in the first-world we had this >>219269644
>>219277732Internet maybe, but vidya were at their peak during the PS360 era. It was the last time gaming saw actual innovation.
Late 90s were peak humanity because soviet russia had collapsed.We'll have another peak once russian federation collapses again.
>>219272116Partially true, it's also that the normies in first world countries came online, the internet was better when only 50% of the western world was here
stop being an attwhore and fuck off, slavejeet
>>219277804The peak of Vidya ended when the industry began focusing on multiplayer slop and microtransactions, which started happening around 2010
>>219277804that's funny, I seem to remember that era being filled with doom and gloom from people complaining about lazy sequels, the advent of greedy DLC practices ruining the industry and overt reliance on the brown and bloom aesthetic.
>>219278060and inclusivity (inducing a larger percentage of the population to buy their shit)
>>219272116>you niggers>Flag
>>219278111https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_G7-opxBLQ&t=110s
>>219278069The most prevalent dooming of the early 2010s was the piss filter (the brown and bloom aesthetic) and wagglan taking over. That gen was on its way out when greedy DLC and MTX were becoming mainstream.
The early 2000's were pretty cool, everything after about 2006-7 has been a nightmare
>>219278299Oblivion's $10 horse armor dlc came out in 2006 and caused a huge shitstorm. It was the one that gave everyone ideas to monetize the shit out of underwhelming game chunks. That was the beginning of the end. Dulled colors for the sake of realism was also in full force by 2007 with mainstream games like Gears and CoD. I distinctly remember that in 2008 there had already permeated a general sentiment of apathy towards the industry by then due to bad practices and samey unappealing aesthetics.
00s was the peak of civilization. Internet existed and had everything you can get now and then some, and also you could logoff and see people who didn't have social media addiction or dementia. This will never happen again
>>219272116Trvke. but let’s not forget that even in firstie cunts, not all normgroids were on it, which helped too
>>219277806Probably, the second the US revved up the war machine in 2001 everything went to shit. And I mean on the dot, the last iconic films Hollywood released were on that year exactly (American Psycho for instance). Then when Russia chimped out in 2014 things became increasingly worse since. Even something as innocent as memes were wiped out by these comparison formats, chad vs. virgin et al., also I find it high irony that 4chan bitches about twitter/reddit colonizing them when they used to raid forums all the time and basically centralized internet culture in the early stages. The liberal dream had to end because apparently someone thought mudslimes and Russians were enough of a threat.
>>219267881Nothing will ever compare to WoW in the 2000s. People lining up outside gamestop for midnight releases, LAN parties, having a whole living community of real people playing the game from all walks of life. Nobody knew what they were doing, no metagamers or dataminers. It was a very different time that can probably never be replicated.
>>219278084Was already dead by the time 'inclusivity' started, it never helped sales in the slightest and let the greedy industries scapegoat DEI for their own failures.
>>219272116TACTICAL SUBORBITAL TRUTH NUKE
>>219267881While this anon >>219275662 is right about life becoming more stressful as you get more responsibilities, you just really can't compare the pre and post-smartphone worldsThis dystopian post-smartphone shithole world OBJECTIVELY SUCKS
>>219279007seems legit because I don't think that I even knew about the existence of iPhones until the 4th gen was released
>>219275662>faggots the only reason you remember that time fondly is because you were a young boy who didnn't have any care in the world except playing videogames all dayYou are talking to literal NEETs on 4channel. Things just suck ass now.

Early 00s was the last epoch withouth Wokeness in mainstream culture.I don't want be any older than what I am know so I'm grateful to be from 98, but my teenage years would be much better if I was born between 85-90

>>219273677This is how nostalgia works for every time period in every country. The trends that everyone remembers were things that only trendy young people were engaged with
>>219268191i used to hate the 2000s but it was my teen years and in retrospect compared to the 2010s it wasnt filled with woke assholes or poltards.that being said there were bad things that happened like 9/11 and hurricane katrina
>>219273677The 2000s hit the golden mean of technological development x social interactionThere was good communication infrastructure so you wouldn't miss out on important stuff like the decades before, but people also weren't brainrotten from internet addiction and had fulfilling social livesSo sad it lasted so short
