So today on r/politics.... Obviously it's full of liberal bullshit 24/7, I just posted a Reuters video of riots going on during the Trump inauguration. Followed their rules. No text. Well, they made up some bullshit and my whole account is temporary banned throughout reddit. This is very odd as I've posted content before, following the rules, with no issues. Get ready guys. You think censorship is bad now, just wait.

I find it is an amazing website for certain things (hobbies is mostly what I use it for), but it is the worst place ever for discussion of any weight and the entire site has a creepy cultic vibe to it. I always feel like an outsider, but if I am looking for information on a hobby (like motorcycles, music, leatherworking, cars), there is no better place. Traditional forums are not what they used to be.
You know what I REALLY miss about old school 90s/early 2000s internet? I miss the feeling of finding a forum and hanging out in the general section talking shit about whatever. I miss when the internet felt lawless and free. It was the wild west in the 90s and I miss it every day. Nobody took it seriously and the only people who even knew how to use it were probably cool because they managed to find a chat room or forum lol. Same with YouTube in the pre google days. Everything went to shit when the internet became an advertising platform. It was way cooler when it was that nerdy thing 90% of people have never seen but if you knew then you were part of something that will never be seen again. The wild west frontier of the internet.
Hell yeah man. I miss the old days of internet forums. I made some of the best friends I have on those. Reddit is really the last place that is popular that is anything like that
me too. And then connecting via MSN Messenger with the people you got close too. Golden era of the internet indeed. Now all we get are lousy tiktok videos and censorship.
