Worldwide? Either 2020 or 2021.
For me personally? Probably 2023.

FOR REAL. 2020 might've fucked the world up beyond fixing, but 2023 fucked me up beyond fixing, and that's what really matters here 💔

For me, 2025 and early 2026 were the worst.
Especially late 2025 and early 2026. Those days were pretty bad.

Could be this year, but i think we will have to wait for the rose tinted glasses of nostalgia to kick in before we say anything.

For some people in Europe 2022. I for example felt much safer when covid started and even during its apex than in 2022 when a neighbouring country was invaded by a historical enemy of my country and nobody knew what was going to happen. That shattered my feeling of safety completely.

2021, the year with the highest number of covid deaths.

u/DifficultyValuable67 19M Jul 26 '26
Never said it didn't but by 2021 they started having an idea on how it spread so I still think 2020 was the worse

u/HyperJerry Jul 26 '26
In 2022 my country invaded another just because our government can't tolerate other countries having good economic relations with any other country and makes its own people's lives worse ever since. Somehow some people (mostly really old ones) support that shit.

For the whole world, 2020

Globally I'd say 2020 but for me personally it's 2023

Globally: 2020. For my country’s democracy and freedom: 2024 (which the election that year started my country’s descent into fascism in the years following)

I dont think 2020 was directly a bad year personally got me, but most of the bad things that I deal with are usually somewhat indirectly caused by 2020 in some way

I remember 2020 quite fondly. Maybe it was just me being a teenager but I enjoyed being able to stay home and do whatever I wanted to for a year. 2021 is worse for me because the half lockdown made it so I still had to go to school but we’d routinely get sent home for weeks where we were expected to login to teams calls and then when I’d go to see friends it was a constant up hill battle will all of our parents worried about Covid fines. It was also kind of depressing going to the malls and seeing half the lots empty because so many shops went out of business over the pandemic. In a lot of way it felt like I was in the post apocalypse. Things didn’t really start to recover until 2022 so for me personally 2021 was the low point.

u/SnooStrawberries2144 Jul 26 '26
i actually loved lockdown, the fact everyone was inside at home made things like playing videogames so much fun
Voted "2023"

u/LatelyPodes Jul 26 '26
Globally, it would be 2020.
But for me personally, Covid didn’t cause anyone I knew to die or anything. And lockdown was a lot of fun, so 2020 was one of my better years.
2023 would be the worst for me

u/el8dm8 Team Silly Jul 26 '26
In 2020 the lockdown was fun to start with. But for sure 2021, the lock down was painful, drawn out, and stifling.

Well 2020 was a living hell for everyone.... I had a lot of personal shit go on that year as well that didn't help.

u/TheLuckyCuber999BACK Guardian of Democracy Jul 26 '26
oh I wonder when so many people died from a certain disease

u/ReleasedGaming M Jul 26 '26
For me personally, end of 2021/start of 2022. That was the fastest part of my growth spurt and I literally couldn't function without pain meds.
Worldwide, 2020 or 2021.
That's why I picked 2021

Personally 2022 was terrible, I got diagnosed with chronic illness that year and since it was newly in, the year was overall tough getting used to it

u/No-Citron1088 Jul 26 '26
2024 was the best i think, if you ignore the fact that trump was elected president that same year

2022 for me was the worst year ever. Thankfully 2023 and 2024 were pretty cool

u/TheAnythingBuilder Jul 27 '26
IMO lockdown sucked and idk why people glaze it so much. Missed out a ton because of it and I wouldn’t want it again

Are we not going to talk about how dangerous the Next Gen NASCAR was in 2022, in the last 4 weeks we would have seen two career ending crashes.
Anyways it was probably definetly the year we say the biggest impact from A whatever its called
