The old web is still there but it is definitely dwarfed by the new web. Search results are gamed, comment sections are spammed, product placement and paid reviews are rampant, fake neutral information websites erode trust. Because there is money involved and access to the Internet is not controlled, some people chasing the dollars ruin the experience for everyone. They keep generating noise in their chase of money so that eventually the old web is impossible to find because most links lead to the new web.

It sounds like an interesting technical problem at first. A search engine for hobbyists. Use AI or whatever to filter out commercial interests.

The problem is that nobody will pay you by definition and you are in an arms race against commercial interests. Does not sound sustainable.

Remove the cause and not the symptoms!

haha, stop capitalism - it took GeoCities away from us! Very compelling.
