I miss listening to ska mp3s on Winamp while playing Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon on that new IMDb website and pausing briefly to chat with a friend through one of my many IM accounts logged into Trillian.

People understanding the horrible sound I consistently make in public
I didnt start really using social media until I was 15 (2015) (not including when I briefly used FB when I was 13 and having an account on the official Warrior Cats message boards when I was ~12), but even then it seems like people were a lot more chatty? I feel like I got more positive comments on my shitty art from that time than I sometimes do nowadays.
And also the fact that so many people nowadays share their full name how they look irl. I'd much rather keep that shit private unless it's someone I trust and seems especially dangerous nowadays, and now there's a worrying amount of minors doing it.
