    The internet has been ‘app-ified’. For many, if not most, people the internet is a collection of apps. Mail, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok. The time of webrings, forums and indexes are long gone.

    Sometimes I feel blessed to have been around when the internet was like the wild west, everything open to everyone. Now gatekeepers are everywhere. Your success on-line determined by the algos from multi-billion dollar companies.
