I recently got this thought to my head. How different of a person I would be if internet didn't exist.
On one hand, I feel like maybe it would be for the better. I feel like I maybe would be forced to be social as a kid, which would have helped me be a more adjusted person. In reality
spent my early teens browsing 4chan. I like to imagine it's not visible to the outside eye. At least not anymore.
Then again, I wouldn't know English now if internet didn't exist. I probably in general wouldn't have any skills that I have now because I learned most of the things by reading stuff online and having stuff there be on my path by accident. Also surpisingly, I actually got partly more social because of the internet. Because if I didn't have people to reach out to online in my early teens again, I think I would have became a hermit by now.
I think that's it. Like it's hard for me to imagine how life would be, for better or worse.
How about you?
