It's so tiring reading stuff like this: Jason Velazquez writes "Somewhere between the death of our favorite aggregator websites and the world surviving a pandemic, the modern internet was reduced to four companies in a trench coat. You don't have to visit those websites. RSS still exists, aggregators still work. Blogs are still being published by thousands of people around the world." The only person stopping you from stepping outside a paywall-defined and/or toxic meta-site is you. That other internet exists - you have just conditioned yourself to pretend it's not there.
