I am from 2000 and I lived the internet since 2008. People are not aware of how much the internet has changed since then...
The humor has changed so much in just 10 years! In addition to humor, there is also what is considered 'scary'. In the past, creppypastas were scary, nowadays, it's impossible to create anything scary fictional. People are more insensitive. Also, everything was more 'decentralized', it was a more 'atomic' internet, sometimes it felt warmer than today even if there were less people.
We have gone from everyone having Windows XP, to everyone having Windows Vista, to everyone having Windows 7, and finally most of us having Windows 10. It is much more exponential the changes in the technological environments than in the real ones (which are also noticeable in the streets, of course).
Honestly, I find it impossible to predict the internet of 2032... I was writing a letter for 2060 in 'futureme', and I find it impossible to predict what it will be like by then. In fact, I think they won't even use physical screens or keyboards. Anyway, I'm getting long winded!
