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.
I still love that on Lemmy I can post in one thread and recognize someone I interacted with later on another thread. It feels smaller in a good way, like there’s persistence and character instead of commoditized identities.
Now you got me nostalgic for pre-internet days of BBSs and local chat boards. I used to belong to one where we would meet once a month in a Cafe. It was almost like a secret society where you knew everyone.
That’s not too far off from some of my younger years too. Narrower social networks with higher quality connections. God I miss that.
