I really miss all the goofy shyt and people doing it for the entertainment value

Your real identity wasn't all tied up with your internet presence like now so it wasn't clout chasing as it were

That line getting blurred fukked everything up

Once you the resolution went above 480p it was a wrap


These dudes had some classics. The first time I seen this shyt with the Pootie Tang looking breh :dead:


I remember these brehs at my college homecoming years ago:mjlol:

Youtube had straight up porn on it from 07 on back. The word algorithms were still a mess on there, but you could find ANYTHING you wanted on youtube back then.

YouTube’s Golden Age was def that period of its inception in 2005 all the way to 2013 when the whole Vine phenomenon peaked

You could watch movies and whole TV episodes in full back then :wow:

The pixelation and servers were trash at the time looking back but back then, shyt was state of the art. I even remember the old format

Only thing that really sucked about it tho was this

shyt would be stuck on buffer for 30 mins to an hour sometimes, shyt got real disrespectful while you were in the middle of watching some really good shyt :snoop:

The UI takes me back.

The star rating system is much better than thumbs up and thumbs down.
