hard to conclude there is a lot less creativity being shared today on social media, than the haphazard, disparate websites in the 90s. I remember pages full of glitter, and hardly readable nor user-friendly marquee text with blue underlines in technicolor with no synchrony on how to navigate them


The content now is just as creative as it ever was, it's just now all displayed in one of a few of social media's uniform sanitized templates.

While there were plenty of sites back in the day that were basically unreadable all kinds of popular layouts and color schemes rose to the top and gained popularity. I wonder how things would have evolved if it had continued.
