mobile internet and smartphones were the real gamechanger here, which were definitely not linear.

They became viable in the 2000's, let's say 2007 with the iPhone, and by late 2010's everyone was living online, so "decades" is a stretch.

To make the 2000s possible, decades of relatively uninteresting progress was made. It quickly takes off from there.
