Now we’re stuck wit they shítty algorithm that stays suggesting videos I already watched that have nothing to do with what I just searched…

I thought that was just me. All started when they pushed you to turn on watch history or you don't have a home page and shorts feed. Can't put on music and let it auto play to the next anymore. since it just plays some random shyt i already watched.

Yall remember shiit like Justin TV. Used to watch so much live sports and series on there

If you started streaming in those days you'd be eating right now

Old YouTube was GOAT except for the short video runtimes.

I remember they were 10 minutes long, except for one YouTube video of Kevin Smith talking about his time writing a script for a Superman movie. It was almost 20 minutes long in 2006 and I still to this day don’t know how.

[ChatGPT-5]

I hate that my ad free YT account is different from the main one i used all these years. So many memories saved..

Good thing Google walked back deleting those old abandoned channels..

Spoiler: VIDS

That was actually added in 06 I think. Before that, it was unlimited but you had full-length movies and shows on thereCopyright claims weren't like they are now so the 10 minutes was a way to slow that up. 10 minute cap comes online and I swear 50% of youtube became DBZ clips with Linkin Park songs over them.

Don't forget getting rickrolled

Don't forget getting rickrolled

That came later but yea. I wasn't as annoyed by Rick Rolling as I was by wanting to see a DBZ clip cause I missed it or something and its Linkin Park or some nerd recapping it on a microphone with no wind shielding.
