I've been saying that MySpace was the last time the internet was at all good for... years now. Of course most of it was annoying, but if you don't let people be annoying you're also restricting the range of everyone's speech. 99% of everything is crap, but if you don't allow the crap, the 1% of good stuff will evaporate, too.

Between the sanitized Facebook and the siloing of people into apps, there's fewer obvious social on-ramps to coding on the internet, especially now that so much is mediated by apps.
