I'm a fan of Open Source and have a growing interest in serverless and edge computing. I'm not a big fan of spiders, but they're doing good work eating bugs. I also stream on Twitch.
A bunch that I relate to have already been mentioned but a couple others are phone booths/pay phones. I can only think of one that I know still exists à Montreal. I'm sure there's others, but they're definitely a rarety.
Any old media for the computer: floppies 3 1/2" and 5 1/4", iOmega Zip drives/disks.
Ordering music CDs by mail from Columbia House. (Just a Canadian thing?)
Dial-up Internet that is implied by other comments like using America Online.
Going to the library and going through countless drawers of cards to find a book.
Physical encyclopedias. The list goes on...
Almost forgot to mention the Nintendo Power Glove.

United States thing as well. :)
I stand corrected. I'm going further on a metro line I take and I'm seeing payphones or two at each station. 📞 🤷♂️
