Do you think facebook/instagram/reddit ect killed the internet?

Before all these sites came along you didnt go to one big website to see everything.. People actually ran small personal sites even if they were on free hosts. Im not talking porn or adult, but just normal people running website about their interests or hobbies..

It was common to visit various forms like gfy for example for any topic you could think of. Now days its just some sub on reddit or a group on facebook. Added to this tens of thousands of business owners feed traffic to facebook by having ther business there and advertising their facebook page vs their own websites..

Did sites like facebook and reddit simply feed peoples lazyness or did the kill tne internet we used to have... the old wild west internet..
