I never had a MySpace (almost everyone I knew had one), but I recall making a post several months ago saying something similar. People traded unique and fun with MySpace for dull/bland with Facebook.
MySpace was annoying as shit though, let's be honest. Crazy backgrounds, music blasting when you went on someone's page. There's also no saying how crappy it'd be if it survived in its original form into 2020.
I met my current wife 100% through myspace, so it has a special place in our hearts.
I mean, if you didn't like someone's page on myspace you didn't have to go to it, you had a choice and say. Facebook just rams everyone's garbage down your pipehole with the feed. Also there were global options to turn off auto playing of music, but I guess you had to be signed into an account to set that option which you couldn't have
Myspace started by giving people choice and allowing them to decorate their own territory. (freedom)
Facebook started by taking that choice away from people and telling them exactly how their profile should look. (communist)
designing my myspace page was so much fun.
