You think the new stuff is actually better? All these modern platforms are just dumbed down and locked down. That old software let you actually control your own space, you owned the data. Now you're just renting a page on some corporate server that can ban you or change the rules whenever. Sure, it took work to set up, but you learned how it actually worked. Now you just click buttons in a bubble and hope the company doesn't go under. That "messy" admin panel showed you everything that was happening. The new ones hide all the real info behind a slick, simple screen. Feels like trading a real toolbox for a toy set.
