If you’ve got nothing nice to say, go the fuck away. I’m instantly blocking shitheads who want to poke fun at this for their own amusement. You lead sad little lives.

I am probably the last of the group of people that were some of the early adopters of the internet. The internet didn’t fully become public and more accessible until 1994, I didn’t start using the internet until 1996. I am nearing 30 years old on the internet by next year. People from my group, we’ve seen it all by this point.

We’ve seen the internet at it’s infancy, as it developed, the explosion of it’s usage, the dot com bubble burst, Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Flash’s death and the ongoing enshittification of the internet today as we know it.

    I don’t understand—you think you’re one of the last people left who started using the internet in the 90s?

      I think what OP is trying to say is that people in their age range will end up being the last of those people, ie. the internet was one of their earliest memories and that happened to be right as it took off. A similar example from my age range, we will probably be the last to remember the WTC attacks as they happened. It’s one of the earliest memories I have. Not me specifically, unless I am graced with an incredibly long life, but someone around my age who is.
