I’ve long thought that we need a web 3.0 that uses a different protocol entirely and is techie and difficult like getting on bbs’es was in the 80s . For a good 20 years until that one gets enshitified too we have another chance.

Humanity may never see anything like the 90s-2000s era again. That was a distinct milieu of nearly unbound creation and discovery. Not only did corporations remained skeptical of the internet. People were highly averse to being manipulated because the internet was untrustworthy. Paradoxically that’s what made the internet trustworthy. Once trust was established of course. It was a perfect mix of factors that made it a unique period in history.
