I kind of like that TOR is a more primitive version of the web out of necessity (because having these fancy webpages with graphics and other shit to load would just take forever through an onion relay) but I kind of hate that it's just damn hard to find working links to stuff and the association with the seedy underbelly and criminal enterprises of the internet. Also, I've been totally spoiled with my fast internet connection to the clearweb because I no longer have the patience to click on a link and wait for 20 minutes for it to finish loading.
I guess in the future there might be more of a reason for people to retreat from the clearweb, especially considering how shitty things are going in western politics right now.
