Great post, I particularly liked the serious in-depth discussion of a way to make The Internet work again.
Impressive, but certainly won't work, you're fighting bloat wrong. Fundamentally non-commercial Fidonet died at the millenium dawn, technically inferior gopher is more like galvanized cadaver. Actually, webdevs has no intention to make your CPU fan spin at the highest speed and sites showing ads doesn't seem to be maintained from your donations.
If web devs don't want free tax payer money, it's their loss. That's more money for the sane people. The government undercutting shady markets, thus bankrupting them has worked wonders for drugs, no reason why ads should be any different. Though ideally all forms of advertising would be declared illegal: put up or gulag.
hey uhm I wrote a comment on your incel article. it's a mess but idk I didn't want to say nothing at all https://joppiesaus.neocities.org/div/letter/vas_2019-10-28.txt
Thank you for your thoughts. I think internet overuse is more symptom than cause; loneliness was rising before its popularisation with the smartphone. I plan on further critiques of communism in the future, but this one was getting on my nerves because of how trivial it was to disprove.
Your analysis on incels currently and in the foreseable future is spot on. Though I don't believe that incels had it much better in the past either. If you look at our DNA it is obvious that we have had more female ancestors than male ancestors. In other words most women reproduced whereas most men did not. In other words those women had sex with a smaller pool of men.
