MODERATORS

Well, today I had a fit of nostalgia for the old Internet without algorithms and moderation and I want to ask you, do you remember this? (lemmy.world)

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 remember pre Eternal September, yes.

My father loved technology so the moment we could get internet we did. Which was right after our doctor friend got internet lmfao. Loved you, mosaic, at his house.

I use to go to some site called A Girls World which was for girls. No idea how safe it was. I edited recipes for the site! Fun times.
