You're just old and nostalgic. (No worries, so am I).

People still have interest in philosophy, free Internet and so forth.

Nothing is gone, it's just been made a bit less obvious.

Agreed it is mostly nostalgia. But it _was_ a unique time: the internet was pretty new for many people, and not ubiquitous like it is today.
