In its infinite 'wisdom (read:arrogance)' Google decided that link lists were a competitor to Google Search so it lowered their SERPs to page 7 and effectively killed them.
You must feel like a time-traveler in the digital world. Seven digital years is like seven centuries in real time.
Link lists have been partially replaced by social media now. Social media exists in a silo of influence that is not (or becoming a lesser part) of the Google ecosystem.
See my avatar -- most of us are Google's galley slaves today -- rowing Google's 'war-ship' and getting whipped regularly. Adapt or die -- good luck to you.
