I dunno. Been improving my mental health lately and it doesn’t seems to that there’s so many subs on reddit where the only purpose seems to be wallowing in misery.

In your frame of experience that’s probably how you see it, but the early Internet users were all highly educated, technically-savvy employed intellectuals.
Every year would bring a new wave of behavioral morons in the form of young students and that was okay because they were morons but at least they were learning.
It all went to trash when it became available to the commoners.
Umm what? The early Internet was a great place due to highly educated employed users? And the commoners ruined it? Did I miss the /s?
I mean lot’s of things follow that trend. Look at drones for example - RC helicopters were around since (and I’m sure before) I was born and were never a huge problematic thing with people flying them in dangerous places above people or near airports (although I’m sure there were very specific cases where those did occur).
But during that time they were both A) expensive and B) required a lot of practice and skill to operate. Anyone that spent the large amount of money and will to put in the time to learn to fly them probably had the common sense to not fly them near people or airports. Bit when anybody can spend $100 on a drone of the convenience aisle at checkout, you start seeing all sorts of problems.
