Couldn’t this be much different if “web 2.0” hadn’t taken over?
Probably not, even if you have time to maintain your site by updating it occasionally then it still falls upon individuals to fund the hosting services and hold the domain name. Even Hexbear’s domain wound up for auction a little while back because they forgot to pay their bills.
Many of them are still alive but don’t get the exposure they deserve because of centralized networks.
Since Net Neutrality has been off and on enforced, it’s generally been considered illegal to block, hide, or throttle traffic, but I agree those small sites didn’t get as much search indexing unless they paid for ads.
Forums lifespans weren’t all that much anyways. Most sites that were hosted before 2010 are gone now.
The real downside to everything being on StackOverflow, Reddit, Discord, etc is that it has made it easier for big tech to run their shady data collection and analysis schemes including AI Training.
Nice, thank you, I’ll delete my comment shaming washboards.

I really hope so.

I mean, if the ship is truly self sufficient for long journeys, then this is exactly what they’ve already been doing.
So there is this thing called a Primary Election which Bernie lost by a huge amount of votes every time. Luckily Bernie agreed with me on this and desperately asked us to vote for the candidate who won.
Fun fact, Bernie isn’t even in the DNC and they still let him on their tickets to begin with.
