If you’ve got nothing nice to say, go the fuck away. I’m instantly blocking shitheads who want to poke fun at this for their own amusement. You lead sad little lives.

I am probably the last of the group of people that were some of the early adopters of the internet. The internet didn’t fully become public and more accessible until 1994, I didn’t start using the internet until 1996. I am nearing 30 years old on the internet by next year. People from my group, we’ve seen it all by this point.

We’ve seen the internet at it’s infancy, as it developed, the explosion of it’s usage, the dot com bubble burst, Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Flash’s death and the ongoing enshittification of the internet today as we know it.

    i’m not sure i understand the question. if it is meant to ask what experience i’ve had that no other living person has or ever will experience again, then i’m probably not old enough in my mid 30s to lay any such claim. this doesn’t seem likely to be what you mean though, since it should be obvious to you that you aren’t the only surviving person who used the internet in the 90s.

    my second interpretation of the question would be that you want to know what experience i am the most recent person to have experienced, which would work with your example, if you consider the ‘early’ internet to have ended and become the regular internet, right after you first got online. for that, a couple hours ago, i walked atop a particular out of the way concrete block wall on my way home. probably nobody has done that since then.
