Consolidated == decreased.

The amount of websites isn’t what eventually consolidated. Internet traffic did, and the value of domains went way down. That’s why it’s described as a bubble.

Anywhere and everywhere that isn’t a scam site. Etsy, ebay, local and small business websites directly, b&h, sweetwater, newegg.

I just stopped shopping at amazon altogether. My online shopping experience has improved a lot since then.

The vast majority of businesses don’t own domains and host their own websites which is what the .com bubble was. They host pages on Etsy, Facebook, squarespace, WordPress etc etc.

LLMs are not AI. They’re content stealing blenders wearing a name tag that says AI on it.

Conspiracy theorists aren’t actually truth seekers. They’re not out to discover the truth. They want to proclaim the truth and feel like special people who have hidden knowledge so they can feel superior. It’s all about their ego, their sense of security, and nothing else.

The whole problem with companies like Amazon is that hardly anyone in charge of them seems to care about long term sustainability. They all just invest enough effort to squeeze out some short term profits, earn their bonuses and then leave for another company to do it all again. Nobody is interested in sustainability because there is no incentive to. They’re playing hot potato with the collapse of the company.

Now they can replace them without paying unemployment and pay the new workers a lower wage. This is what they wanted to happen. Mega corporations are a problem we need to solve as a society.
