> Whatever happened to the idea of “exploring the Internet”?

Written content on the Internet are much lower in terms of quality than before. SEO has taken over and so written content tend to be wordy or salesy. There is no mechanism for users to flag low quality content to Search engines or other users, so it is a free for all.

Online forums are long gone. People migrated to Reddit where discussion is much more shallow, or private communities on Facebook.

We could still find interesting stuff on YouTube, for now.
