i started using the internet in the late 2000's and still remember when you search for something most of the times it would return with a forum post ... now its just random websites ... if you ever need real and concise answer you have to add site:reddit.com at every search and since discord or twitter are not crawlable by these search crawlers they are not mentioned . Where did all those forums went...are there still active forums ?

instead of using a password manager managed by a PRIVATE ENTITY people should start using bitwarden ... its opensource, free and much more secure and reliable

nice, do you know other such websites but about topics other than vintage cars ... i think our internet today has become too boring as most people just visit the same 5 to 6 sites (YouTube , reddit , wiki , insta , twitter , and twitch) and call it a day .... websites like these make me curious about the days when we had separate websites like these for such niche content

Are sites like lemmy , reddit and discord the true successors to the old internet forums of the 2000s . or were the forums superior to todays reddit , lemmy or discord

yes archive.org is pretty good in finding some very obscure and rare movie from 30s or 40s or some old books or niche software or music but most of the things on it are webpages and 100s of copies of the same webpage in different times (not very useful in a post apocalyptic world tho as most of the things on the archived websites you can't even click because its only a snapshot )

"On July 6, 2022, an explosive device was detonated at the site, destroying the Swahili/Hindi language slab and causing significant damage to the capstone. Nearby residents reportedly heard and felt explosions at around 4:00 a.m" the rocks got destroyed by a mere explosive and they thought it could survive a nuclear war lol

you can read pretty much (except the lost media like those lost in library burnings , film destruction and wars) read any book written by humans since 2500 bce (example Rig Veda the first ved of Hinduism was written even before 2500 and is today said to be 98% at its original state thanks to Indian gurus and saints who passed it on orally and was made into a book only after 8th century) , watch any movie ever released , hear any music ever made after recording was invented .

ofcourse there is a catch that these medias are not freely and publicly available and most you have to pirate in order to consume it thus we need to have a centralised database of these things safely kept somewhere so that we don't have to reinvent the wheel in case of a catastrophic event .

Recently I was wandering if there is someone or some group preserving , collecting , organizing and publishing all the knowledge of mankind ever created throughout its existence so that if ever mankind faces the 6th mass extinction we don't have to reinvent the wheel and can have a kick start to our new post apocalyptic civilization .

so why did they slowly died out and these platforms even after so many years are still standing (except lemmy obv)

AI ruined google , it so sad to see the current state of the internet ... there used to be so many articles with real effort being put in written by people with real passion for their field of knowledge .... now if you want a genuine answer either you have to reddit it or search for a article written by a genuinely knowledgeable person (which is very hard as they get often burried upon by AI writen shit articles)

[-] saltynuts420@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

People who write on reddit dont produce the info themselves instead they would have also reffered to some book / article (mostly articles) thus reading the articles will give you more info about the topic .... just remember before reading the blog/article see the author and his/her qualification , most articles give a brief info about the writer at the top ... just make sure that person is genuinely knowledgeable on the topic .... also avoid AI written articles
