Is it just my nostalgia or does everything feel really different now

From the past ten years, especially since the pandemic. I feel like the internet and social media has changed a lot. I was one of those people who grew up with the internet and I used to love it a lot with creators like lily Singh, markiplier, mostly sane, aib and more but now I just feel so tired from the toxicity and hatred. I remember when in 2010s, I used to watch youtube and use instagram, face book and tumblr and people weren't so hateful and didn't make such outrageous comments in the name of dark humor. Everything felt chill and people weren't that much toxic. It actually felt like people put effort in their content, now everything feels so sloppy or ragebaity especially movies and music, everything is either remixes or just created for virality. I was recently listening to some 2000s music and the difference between quality is very obvious now. I don't like to compare with western music but atleast there is some originality there with Sabrina, Charlie xcx, Chappell roan. I was young back then, so I might've forgotten about any toxicity from then but even the country felt progressive back then, people were willing to talk about the country's issues, now if you open your mouth to criticize, you're labelled as anti national and what not . In nirbhaya case, there were protests but now with so many brutal cases, people are just desensitized to this stuff.So , am I the only one feeling like this or have things really changed to the worst (in terms of progressiveness, quality of music, movies and content)

Sorry for the long rant, I just wished to tell my feelings. I'm saying this as a genz, I hope I don't sound like a boomer
