No, he's right, the fappening alone was cancer and shit like chanology before that didn't help either.

>t. zoomer retard who grew up with social media and smartphones

>>724282690
lol, the internet

>>724284114
newfag here , what's the happening?
>>
>>724282690
Once my parents pass I think I'm just gonna mostly dip out of it. It's been a larger impediment then boon. To me anyway.
>>
>>724283870
And so was gaming

We wouldn't have Deltarune if that was true

Fappening. A bunch of celebs private pictures, which included a lot of nudes, got leaked in here, and 4chan got flooded with gooner tourists, some of which never left

A breach in Apple's iCloud happened discovered by an Anon on /b/ and several private photos of tons of celebs got leaked online on here at /b/ and tons of normie gooners discovered this place, That was one of the final times this site has been in the mainstream spotlight now.

>several private photos of tons of celebs got leaked online
deserved, who is retard enough to think "hmmm, I'm going to upload my nudes to a private company's server, I hope no one ever sees them"
>>
>>724284339
Nobody used the term "gooner" back then.
>>
>>724284716
True, but he's still right. I'd call them normalfaggots but the point stands.
>>
>>724282690
Internet's got so much shit on it by now it's genuinely competing with vidya time
>>
>>724284659
It's kinda based what that Anon did honestly, /g/fags have been warning everyone about "the cloud" and "botnet" for years now and now that that happened, its a prime example of why corpos shouldn't ask for everything you store and record yourself onto their end.

Smartphones killed the internet.

With smartphones came the flood of normies and boomers who previously didn't care about computers. The computer was something they used rarely for a specific task. But now they could play on their phones all the time while watching Fox News or whatever the fuck, shitting up the internet with political bullshittery.
And with the flood, the internet changed to accommodate them. Sites were changed to appeal to mobile users. Everything conglomerated into a few megasites. And everything turned into baby mode for boomers who didn't know how to use technology.
The normies were like sheep to advertising, algorithmic content, and data brokering, so everything changed to herd them into their slaughterhouses.
Meanwhile we all retreated to obscure places the normies wouldn't go. Like this shithole.

>>724282690
So how different would video games be without the internet? Imagine beating a game but having basically no one to tell the crazy game you played? Even all the wild rumors, secrets, cheats, Easter eggs you would have to discover on your own
>>
Maybe /v/ should try playing video games instead of posting on /v/.
>>
>>724285438
This place fucking sucks cock but at least shit like the pedos, pseuds, schizos & veteran weebs instantly gatekeep normies.
>>
>>724284716
Okay. So? I'm relaying the info today, not 11 years ago
>>
>>724285497
If it's in real time there are sometimes portions like rest or something else where you can switch to a different program. For turn-based games you can sometimes take breaks.
>>
>>724282690
The internet was better when it was a place you visited, not carried in your pocket. Smartphones are aids.
>>
>>724282690
It arguably ruined everything forever
>>
>>724285472
They would be complete packages focusing on trying to make the best game possible, instead of maximizing the time you play it to buy shit on the online store.
Also it wouldn't have "internet content" shoved on it like memes, internet politics and all that garbage.
>>
>>724285534
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. I don't really like loli or anyone into that kind of stuff, but I will forever be grateful that those fuckers do an excellent job keeping normalfaggots out.
