Dailymotion and Metacafe had some good softcore nudity.

When Dailymotion went clean, it hit me hard.

It had to have been a stipulation of their sale cuz Dailymotion knew that was one of their Ace in the holes. Eventually they went full JBO and embraced it, renamed the channel to "Red band" and hid it from the main site so registered users could eat but outside folks wouldn't stumble on it. That's when people started just outright putting toned down porn clips on there. And then...gone

The comment section of Youtube used to be a cesspool of racism.

 

[Guvnor]

shyt it really was wild. I remember even seeing this bit called Tourette's guy on there. It was this comedian who pretended to have Tourette's but at the time I thought it was real. Something like that couldn't fly today lol.

Remember when you could inbox people on there?

Lol I remember that. I used to get some weird inboxes on there at times

Yep, comment section of 2pac songs were full of them

Back then you had to have heard this song at least once a day cause of how often it was used

Remember hearing "Download this song for free, at Youtubepromo.commmm" at the beginning of a video?

These take me way back!

I remember this song getting a lot of play in YT videos back then as well...

 

[Canada Goose]

Wow, all these years I thought the dude in the video below was Mike Tyson




Over the years I only seen it in GIF form but now finally seeing the video its clearly not iron Mike

Stop. I get what you saying, but you need to keep those memories to yourself.

Anything will get posted, and people never flagged cause of hurt feelings

I remember watching this when it first came on Youtube. Good ol days

this is fam here, he is a really good brother, but unapologetic. he also was college professor and taught my brother. when this video clip aired on C-Span, needless to say he was ousted by the college.

I'm glad I'm old enough to have seen and experienced both the early internet and the golden age of the internet.

Everything was free. No ads ANYWHERE!

RIP AudioGalaxy.

Youtube and justin.tv (before it became twitch) were GOAT back then. The marathons of sports, shows and wrestling Now you need a subscription service or iptv to get that sort of content.

When cats used to be on the 2K forums uploading grainy cheese clips from their flip phones before capture cards blew up Those were the days

you could watch tv shows on justin tv too. I remember muhfukkas live streaming tv shows and shyt

social media, sensitive fools and fakkits ruined the internet.

ya'll taking it back From what I remember KAYNE was the one who blew youtube up everybody and they momma ran on that bytch to watch this




Remember Google Video? Google Video - Wikipedia when they tried to complete with youtube at first before they bought them that shyt was barely moderated and wild as fukk

early youtube, myspace, stickam, tinychat, photobucket, tagged, crushspot, ning, all the homegrown sites man that era is sorely missed

myers and tuckers faces early kanye was a legend.
