I get your point, but Amazon, Google, Netflix, zillions of web forums, Facebook, AirBnB, Craigslist, Google Maps, NextDoor, DoorDash, Google Photos, all the messaging apps, and many other services all post-date 1995. In terms of how I live vs. how my parents lived, basically all the major changes are because of the Internet, and most happened in the last 15 years.

Well, apart from Amazon to some extent (we'll find out in twenty years), none of the others have fundamentally altered our lifestyles. Eg: Google -- searching the interwebs is a crazy fantastic capability... But most people aren't really using to live their lives any differently from twenty years ago.

I think YouTube (and possibly Facebook) might be among the only other web services having significant qualitative impact on people's lives. Maybe Uber/Lyft for an American audience used to owning cars.
