I mean those weird and gory YouTube videos and stuff with the blackest humor and seas of blood and a real living soul.
I even re-watched some videos, some from archives, some from open access, and it was magical, a little strange of course, but damn alive. Doctor, I want to go back to the past. And the most important thing is that there was no AI.
Does anyone still remember the times of the 2000s and 2010s?
Edit: Oh yeah, can you also send links to some videos or art or even music that you liked before.
No mods I’m the 2000-2010s? What are you on about?
Other than that, the old net was populated with personal sites maintained by hobbyists and fellow nerds. GeoCities was the place to hang and share. It was open and it was free. I miss it terribly. I miss the feeling of progression instead of recession. I miss looking at mediocre art and knowing somebody poured a piece of their soul there, or reading an article and knowing its mildly informative contents were stitched together by someone who at least gave half a shit.
Oh, the things we have become.
Well, yes, my experience is different from yours. I was a fan of ultra-violence and black humor. And it wasn’t that there were no moderators, I just knew how to get around them and continue having fun. Of course, it wasn’t always easy, but it was worth it. And yes, I could very well be wrong since I don’t know everything, sorry.
I watched a dude kill another dude with a shovel in 2004 on thatsphuckedup dot com. So I mean you do know things.
You can get that vibe again at https://neocities.org/
Neocities is it’s own vibe all together.
There wasn’t much JS used on Geocities pages typically
That said, Neocities is the shit
