I definitely do. I had no idea we had so little time to share together.

I used to but not anymore? Maybe 10 years ago I had this idea that there was no future, that no matter what I did it wouldn't matter since everything's been done, all the good moments have already happened. After this year, I not only feel optimistic about the future but I also kind of realize how lame looking back at the past can be, and not just because the memories I look back on are lame things like playing games lol.

sometimes, and i'm even nostalgic of stuff that were happening some months ago, but the present is fun too!

I miss the internet. Things felt more authentic even when I just played shitty web games where you had to grind shitty PNGs.
I also wish I could have took my weeb hobbies more seriously instead of using them passively to escape reality. It seems fun trying to learn japanese or build a project in the animu world, whether it's drawings or maybe a visual novel. Unfortunately I've been lazy so I didn't develop skills that would allow me to create something meaningful.
Despite having these heart wrenching feelings about my past self and about human reality, seeing other people's works and cute waifus still is a lot of fun. I'm grateful for that.

>>12982I have been missing them for the last 4 years. And the last few years feel like a complete void like nothing happened really, I can't tell you anything that happened to me in 2020 or 2019, these years are just numbers now. I do miss being a teen but I think it wasn't as good as I remember it, I think we mostly remember the positive aspects from the past. If I try to remember the past the way it actually was I think it wasn't that much better than the present. But at least back then I wanted to live and was excited about the future.

>>12982I'm still human, at least a little bit, so I do feel thankful for the past we have had together and the moments that shaped our being, but I don't miss it. I think that nostalgia is a lousy liar, it tries to keep you stuck in an imagined past festering so that you can't change and shape your present. Too many people are afraid of change, but change is what makes life beautiful.
Instead of being stuck in regrets and a desire to return to what doesn't exist, maybe instead take that thankfulness and pay it forward? If you stay and act in the present then you can create new memories to be thankful for and enjoy - that spark joy. But if you stay in the past, then you'll miss the present. It's the present we ought to focus on. Let's shape a better future for ourselves as we keep changing, create new and even better memories!
All that you touch you change. All that you change it changes you.

I miss the media, art and the culture of the internet when I was younger, but outside of those I don't really look too fondly on those days. I've always been an outcast in real life and was alone for the most part, probably why I spent so much time online. And online used to be a much better place before social media's rise to prominence. I think what I miss most is old youtube, it used to be the place to find new things, especially videos of people doing fun, exciting things. Monetization of the platform over time eroded it heavily, to the point where all that is left that succeeds on the platform is clickbait, videos about drama, and video essays about things instead of the video being the thing, if that makes sense. I hate youtube "content creators" with a burning passion, especially their incessant whining about how youtube doesn't treat them right when in reality they deserve much less for ruining the platform. Although it can probably be argued that the fault lies with how youtube itself operates too.

I don't because it feels like every new year I just hate myself from the previous year, and I'm glad I can sorta grow as time goes on.

When I was a kid, I didn't really like life. Same as a teenager and now. Still, I like life a lot more since I can go places, go on vacation, learn, etc. I kind of miss the old internet, but the games nowadays are way better. I can literally watch any movie or tv show on the internet for free or read books for free, too. Youtube is pretty shit now, but it's given me a new resolve to tell people to spend their time in better ways. Like, I used to watch different animations or play games when I was a kid. No scrooling at all. I want to encourage that. The old days or gone, but the new days can be even better than the old days!

A bit, I have to admit.
Was lucky enough to accidentally become part of a small circle of friends in my youth, met up for games & drinking nights, barbeque parties in the summer. Now people are busy, some don't want to meet others because of disagreements that never got solved, some moved away, others passed away.
I also miss the trend of companies making transparent plastic versions of game consoles so all the internals were visible, it was such vibes babeh.
