Early YouTube and early Facebook were really good. I liked old Facebook, as well as the timeline update. I miss Joe it used to work. I don't use it or any other equivalent social media because none of them work like that anymore. Lemmy is the only social media I use and that's more of a discussion board rather than keeping up with IRL friends.
Early YouTube comment was great before it got inundated with ads and sponsorships. I miss the silly humour you don't really see that much anymore. The last good era of YouTube was the height of youtube haikus, that sadly, like a lot of things, got replaced by tiktok content.
