People are nostalgic about a time where anyone with no technical knowledge could build a mediocre website with a few photos and some lines of text and start getting free traffic from google, or submit low quality "galleries" with a handful of photos or 15 second video clips and get free traffic from tgps/mgps.
I think rather than be angry that low-skilled individuals can make a disproportionately large amount of money for a small amount of work, they should be grateful that such an opportunity existed for as long as it did
A lot of people are making more money than ever in adult, it's just not the same people and it's not as easy, but remember the time period you are yearning for was pre-facebook, pre-netflix, and pre-iphone. It's a totally different world and that's not Pornhub's fault.
