One of the biggest things I miss is the old YouTube “algorithm”. Before everything was personalized based on your subscriptions and watch history. YouTube was a rabbit hole, the whole site. I miss starting out just watching some random video and then going on the adventure of different videos leading to all sorts of different topics. I’ve always wondered if there’s a site that can return that algorithm, or if I could somehow replicate it.

It feels quaint compared to hearing tiktok videos, which is my new #1 pet peeve. Just the sound sets me off.
