Have an ongoing research for work and correct me if I’m wrong but these are what I understood between the two:
Web2.0\
-Centralized network\
-Web Browser Technology\
Ex. Google Chrome, Google Drive, Skype
-Focused more on content made by users/social media\
-Mostly control all users data\
-Focused more on community development\
-Allows for read and right functionalities
Web3.0\
-Decentralized network\
-Built on top of a blockchain technology
Ex. Brave, Storj, Experty\
-Focused more on data integration\
-Able to monetize certain activities without intermediaries\
-Increased privacy and protection\
-Focuses more on empowering individual user\
-Encourages development of smart applications by using AI, etc.

1. Content made by site providers, hosted by site providers
2. Content made by users, hosted by providers
3. Content made by users, hosted by users
The idea is that with web3 you don’t need to go to a central site to view someone’s post or send them a message, you can do it directly with the person in question. In practice it’s fairly difficult to avoid some form of central authority without compromising on service availability and/or authentication.
