       When was the web more user-hostile: In the late 1990s (pop-up ads, website splash screens, auto-play MIDI, etc.), or now (gestures wildly)?

       @dpk I lived through the 1990s, and it's hardly even a contest. At the time, large parts of the web was made specifically to run under one and only one single browser, available for only one OS. Sites used media plugins, Java plugins and other external software that worked badly, were horrible in so many ways, and, again, were often gated to a single OS even when they would have worked cross-platform. Banks and the like were prime users.Today is still so much better it's not even funny.
