Turns out I'm officially "old". I'm now reading nostalgia pieces about the 'golden age of more than 20 years ago', and nodding along in agreement. The web was better when you had to learn HTML to publish on it, #GetOffMyLawn you dang #Javascript kids! But who do I have to blame but myself and my comrades, who were busy trying to recruit people to use the net and make user-friendly publishing tools in projects like #Indymedia? We helped make this mess. We can help fix it.
