Anyone else look at the early 2010’s with nostalgia now?

[Child_Of_God]

I ain’t going to lie, with so much shyt going on now I kind of miss the early 2010’s (2010-2012). I was still in high school during that time and everything back then seemed less hectic.

1. Social media was less toxic and still in its infancy.

2. We had Obama in office and he was the last sane president we had.

3. My family was still cool and my mental health wasn’t bad.

4. I had way more friends. Nowadays it’s hard to fully trust anyone.

4 People went out and interacted with each other instead of being glued to their phones.

5. Xbox wasn’t trash.

6. Didn’t have to worry about Covid.

I know some of y’all experienced your early adulthood during the 80’s and 90’s and such and feel more nostalgic about that and that’s cool. I just wanted to reminisce for a bit.

2020 opened some doors from hell.

No, but the 2000s I do.

Something was missing in the 2010s for me.

2000-2018ish were ok times. There is absolutely no way in 10 years people look back to the start of the 2020’s and think things were good like we can at previous starts to decades

The world fukked up by not making two internets: one for adults and one for kids. Now that everyone having unfiltered access to social media, this is how it looks.

Got people on reddit, twitter, etc. unknowingly having a full-on discussion/argument with someone who was asking for homework help in a 9th grade english course the week before. Now everyone acting more like kids than ever.

Now you don't know if you're reading takes or arguing with one or the other.

Got people on reddit, twitter, etc. responding to someone's take who a week before is asking for homework help in another subreddit in the 9th grade english course:

Social media wasn't full of bad takes everywhere on the internet like it is today. It only got worse and worse:

It’s not just a phase.

i remember social media being pretty bad by 2010. the waning days of aim/the beginning days of myspace/facebook going open registration were when it started to fall off and i'm from the era just before that so this isn't just nostalgia haha.

 

[African Peasant]

No.

 

[DJ Paul's Arm]

I remember when Instagram was all about photography and food pics.

Now it’s a fukkin cesspool

 

[Canada Goose]

Yes and no.


I only look at 2010 with Nostalgia, 2012 was one of the worst years of my life.

Nah, early 2010s sucked like now. Better electronic music and better shyt from Drake, but that's it.
