You’re right?

It’s well documented Soulja was the first along with ringtones

He was an early adopter. He wasn’t the first. Dude is all hyperbole.

yep. Back when they had that "Most Recent" page and it was purely random with no algorithm.

I miss that shyt. My dumb ass page will push the same videos that ive been ignoring for daysused to be able to refresh the page and get all new videos. Now, 80% of them stay the same and 5% might be stuff I already watched. Also, if I do watch and like something, suddenly I get flooded with related videos. I have avoided liking some videos because I didnt want my page hijacked.
