**Too long**, and **too histrionic**, to say many things that the good folks at [IndieWeb](https://indieweb.org/), the [EFF](https://www.eff.org/), etc have been saying for a decade or two now.
Not to mention **incoherent** (if _“the #web is fucked and there's nothing we can do about it”_, why should I care about it, bother to read the post, or try to change anything at all?), **inaccurate** (_“web 1.0 […] was better”_… there are few breaking changes in the development of the #WWW: that web the author misses didn't go anywhere; anyone can still create and browse sites like those) and **naïve** (have fun using alternatives to Gmail, Google Maps, Wikipedia, many kinds of streaming, collaborative editing of online docs, some kinds of feeds or syndication, sites with 3D capabilities, microblogging, etc!).

@ztx shares this same sentiment. I don't share it. I often enjoy and use monotopical websites. I thank the internet gods everyday for https://xyproblem.info/
@tripu I share your feeling about this manifesto, I think all the cussing is a marketing move to attract attention. The spirit of the old web is still alive if you look for it, like the IndieWeb that you mentioned.
Nowadays I try to focus on the parts of the web that I like, and ignore most of the rest, I think it's making me happier. I'm very surprised when I see what people consume out of Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, Tik Tok, the TV... Thank you, no, thank you.
