When I was 18 I was pretty dumb, yeah. I once totally destroyed a hard drive by corrupting a file trying to make my PC background the “Anal Destruction” website logo
Young people are dumb man.
Yeah, so you missed that what OP talked about was very real. We had much more of those sites based on sharing, and they were much more at the front of the internet.
There were absolutely not more websites based on sharing in the early 2000s lol
You are literally on one of the very many websites dedicated to it, today, while bemoaning it’s absence
Some of the sharing sites from the 2000s monetized themselves and that upsets you. I have no issue with that. There are many alternatives because what he said is false. Go use one of them.
