    So I read the whole thing, and it sounds like highly opinionated ramblings of one individual I never heard of, with a catchy headline to rank high in current search trends.

    This “here is why” bullshit was first used by Buzzfeed and other cringe clickbait generators and should be avoided like the plague.

      Yeah, decentralized is the default state of internet, you can always be disconnected from the WAN like some countries decided to do for their citizens. It wasn’t this connected in the first place, it was very volatile as servers can go down for whatever reason, that’s exactly why early servers have all those mirror options.(so you bookmark several address and visit another if the main one is down.)

      And finding good community was a hassle but worth it. It’s the same for fediverse but now we have good protocols and search function/engine.
