let that sink in, big cultural shift with how certain cultures started being more normalized and how people can find their own subgroup space that kind of thing. it’s very strange since i feel like worldwide events used to feel way more unified. like when the it movie trailer dropped, everyone was talking about it no matter where you went online. same with stuff like pokemon go, endgame, even random big songs or internet moments. it felt like the internet was more centralized and people were all seeing the same things at once. nowadays it feels fragmented.
everyone’s algorithm is so personalized that two people can live in completely different online realities without even realizing it. you can sink deep into whatever niche, fandom, aesthetic, political space, music scene, or subculture you’re in and barely know what’s happening outside of it. there’s less of that “everyone experienced this together” feeling now
something can have hundreds of millions of views and still somehow feel isolated to one side of the internet. the internet used to feel smaller in a weird way despite having less people on it. now it’s gigantic but separated into little bubbles. kinda weird thinking about how fast that shift happened in only a few years and how and the why too
