The inventor of the web on what the web has sadly become

"Le blogging c’était l’époque où on écrivait pour des humains, pas pour des algorithmes, où les discussions se faisaient en citant des liens et pas en crachant des réactions sous un post, et où les trolls devaient au moins se donner la peine d’héberger leur propre merde 🤘"

Ou, tout au moins, d’une quête de ce genre de nouveautés.

Malheureusement, les idées ne naissent que dans le terreau du rien, du vide, de l’ennui."
