unpopular opinion: that era was elite

Okay, I'm just gonna say it. Unpopular opinion maybe, but that era we all low-key try to forget but actually loved? Mid-2010s vibes, before everything got *too* chaotic. Like, peak tumblr aesthetic, chill YouTube era, Vine was a thing. Simpler times, less pressure. Don't fight me on this. 😤 #UnpopularOpinion #ThatEra #PeakVibes #NostalgiaCore #IYKYK

OMG YES. You mean like the peak Vine era? And everyone was obsessed with Tumblr blogs and specific aesthetics? No cap, it felt less performative than now. Less pressure to be 'perfect' for IG. #BringBackVine #TumblrAesthetic

Nah, respectfully disagree. We're just looking back with rose-tinted glasses. Tbh, a lot of that era was kinda cringe looking back, and we have way more representation and accessibility now. Tech is better too. Just sayin'. 🤷‍♀️
