There was never a static, read-only web 1.0. That is a fiction that web3 propagandists invented. Forums and chat rooms, ie interactive websites that support user generated content, have existed since the very beginning of the web.
Further more, web 2.0 was just a marketing term used by suits that didn't understand AJAX and the concept of updating part of a webpage without reloading the whole page.
Following on from that, web3/web 3.0 is nothing more than another marketing term used by suits that don't understand that blockchain is a solution that doesn't actually solve any problems. Just like web 2.0, it isn't a new stage of the web and doesn't really mean anything at all.
Anyone taught this fake history of the web needs to go demand their tuition back, because this web1 -> web2 -> web3 nonsense is a complete fabrication.
Web 3 has been a fairly brilliant marketing initiative for blockchain proponents, for what it's worth.
I'm pretty intrigued by the idea of decentralized sources of truth being more native to the web zeitgeist, while also being skeptical of a lot of the current narrative. I fear that we're going to land very far from the technically optimal way to achieve the good parts of this.

And then, there's this kind of stuff.
