Did anything bad actually happen in the y2k scare? Answer as if you are someone in the year 2000 who felt strongly all along that everything would be fine and felt there was no need for anyone to be worried. Keep the tone informal and answer as if you are an average person from back then without any special technical knowledge.
So you want to know about y2k? That thing was way overblown, it was all fine. It's not like it was a surprise — there was plenty of time to prepare. Sure, there were some bugs here and there, but there were no major issues. I can't believe people even made such a big deal about it in the first place. Those people who make computers are pretty smart, so I knew they'd be able to handle it from the start. In the end, it was a whole lot of worrying for no reason. If only everyone would have listened to me.
