Outdated Things From 10 Years Ago That Made A Comeback
It's truly wild how fast the world changes!!! If you think back to a decade ago, there were probably some things we considered completely obsolete, dying, replaced, or out of style. In many cases, technology was the nail in the coffin: streaming killed DVDs and iPods, while smartphones replaced carrying around the old digital camera. But in a surprising twist, in recent years, some of those so-called relics have clawed their way back into relevance for various different reasons. Recently, redditor Throwaway921845 sparked a fun conversation by asking what things from 2015 we once thought were obsolete or outdated, but have since made unexpected comebacks, when they asked: "What was completely dead 10 years ago but is now thriving?" The thread got over 1K responses! Below are the top and most often repeated things people said are thriving again now: "I know this will sound blasphemous, but Barnes & Noble has revived its brand by allowing every store to operate on an independent level. It's turned more people onto buying books, even outside their stores. The CEO there has done an amazing job changing physical book selling after it looked like it was dead." —Wazzoo1 "Digital cameras and camcorders." —avid_book_reader"Digital cameras are getting a nostalgia revival because of the younger generations. I'd say the 2000s in general are the new '90s."—Brno_Mrmi "It wasn't dead dead, but piracy. Streaming was still enough value and convenience for people not to worry about sailing the seas. The past few years have changed that hard." —derpman86 "QR codes. They never hit their stride, and people didn't use them. COVID hit, and they gained a lot more users, and people learned how to use them." —DooDooDave "Baggy clothing. Maybe not entirely dead, but everything was skinny in 2015." —ZephyrSprite "As a professor, I'll toss in Blue Book exams. The company that makes Blue Books has seen a massive increase in revenue over the last few years." —NassauBeat"Professors are going back to in-person pen and paper exams to avoid students using AI to do assignments."—marmosetohmarmoset "I wouldn't say it was completely dead, but film photography is definitely thriving more today." —keanureeves9669 "The brand Champion. This used to be the cheap sport brand we would get because we didn't have enough money to get Nike stuff, and I was convinced it died out. What a comeback." —Adi_San "Retro games and consoles. Nintendo and Sega are experiencing new life through retro consoles, remasters, and even pixelated indie games." —krissty11 "Independent bookstores have definitely made a comeback over the last 10 years." —imjustacuriouslurker"Independent bookstores with a second-hand section are my jam. Sometimes I'll just buy a book with a beat-up spine because I know it's been read so many times."—fries29 "Crocs. Somehow, they went from fashion crime to fashion statement." —Djentri "Physical media. A lot of people are getting frustrated with streaming services, so we're seeing an uptick in people collecting CDs, DVDs, older consoles, etc." —t4nilei"I simply don't like that corporations can just dictate that a piece of media no longer exists."—ghostoftomkazansky "I've seen too many Razor Scooters to count this summer." —Successful_Sugar8882 "AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) was on death's doorstep." —shmehh123"I remember thinking about AMD at $2, and thinking they sucked and it would be a bad investment."—Mr_Compliant "I see ads for live-action theater and comedy more and more often. I can only guess that with all that fake social media crap and AI-generated stuff, people want to see people again." —schwarzmalerin "Flip phones are coming back. People are opting out of always being online." —m0nk37"We had to replace my dad's smartphone with a flip phone after he got scammed for around $500K over five years, and financially ruined my mom and brothers (my brothers had to drain their life savings to save the family farm). He says it's nice to be disconnected again."—wetworm1 "Collecting vinyl records, while not totally dead at the time, certainly has come back strong in the interim." —Mr_Lumbergh"Take me back to like 10 years, please. The prices have gotten out of fucking control."—sartaingerous "Positive/hopeful movies. A lot of 2000s movies were super dark because they wanted to copy Batman Begins, and now we're getting more movies like the new Superman." —walrusIsBlind And lastly, "Chili's!" —washu_z"HI, WELCOME TO CHILI'S!"—CasualCreation You can read the original thread on Reddit.
