Which digital era would you live in early Internet, social media, or AI age? - Mr. Node.js - Oct 3, 2025
Technology is often judged by convenience and speed, but what if you could choose a different digital era? Early Internet offered privacy and exploration, social media brought connection and energy, and today’s AI-driven world gives instant insight —but sometimes at a cost. If you could live in one era, which would you choose and why?"

Knowing what I know now I would say the Early internet. Mainly because it was soo easy to exploit and I would be seen as an expert on the subject. I would also be able to make bank online xD

Haha, that’s a fair point! The early Internet definitely had its loopholes and early adopters could get creative and profitable 😄. It’s funny to think about how much easier it was to make a name for yourself back then compared to today’s highly monitored digital world

Oh yeah. Like with everything the common population was so unexperienced with it! You could almost do anything if you did have the know-how back then. And get away with it!

Haha, I’m still wondering if that’s even possible or just a tech rumor. Imagine the kind of AI-powered brain boost that would be though 😄.

I would pick the early Internet.
It felt raw, exciting and I could explore without constant ads.

I wish that social media was never popularized and everyone just had their own blog/website.
