While there are still cool places to explore in the internet, yeah, it sucks that people help to spread the same tending things. I think platforms like Meta, Google, etc. are the culprit. They hook people into their so-called ecosystems and people just can't see the cage they are inviting others to inhabitate.

BTW, do people still meet online and get married from random chats?

More than they used to, I personally know 2 couples who met in FFXIV and one who met in a piracy IRC of all places
