90s web was fun in a wild west kind of way. Sites were small, but the net in general was slow.
00-10 had a lot of forums in which I remember being very fun. At the same time it brought in the age of popups and ads everywhere.
10+ brought in the age of large social media and the feeling everything was trying to scam you. A lot of the forums that felt special and interesting started disappearing for multiple reasons, but mostly their userbase had moved to FB or something else huge. Then those large sites started moderating anything interesting away.
