Judging by the catalog, zoomers seem to fall into either transfaggotry or alt-right reactionary camps, all feeding on the same increasingly hyper-compressed "brain rot" that feeds into itself. I dread to imagine how the fuck Gen Alpha is going to turn out. And that's not even taking into account the material reality of not being able to get a wife and kids, a house or a job that isn't low-paid wageslavery or a job waiting to be replaced by AI.

These days, in retrospect, I don't know if it really had a lasting effect. I feel like if internet access remained like it was in the late 00s/very early 10s, the hell we're in wouldn't have progressed so far.

>>6157459
>I feel like if internet access remained like it was in the late 00s/very early 10s, the hell we're in wouldn't have progressed so far.
How would it remain the same as soon as politicians started claiming turf on the web, while hating that the people are using it to make it clear to the whole world what they are thinking instead of merely repeating the old-media's narrative?
Formerly their reach would have remained limited to their direct connections in real-life, and party-dependent people prevented their words (contradicting the party's narrative) from ever reaching further.
So effectively government-funded in-name-only "NGOs" started attempting to correct the people's way of thinking on the web to "protect their democracy" - how could the web remain the same? Their fucking lives depend on "their democracy" (read: their party) collecting enough votes every few years.
The people aren't organized (and frankly said, it's probably better this way), but the actors in the political-medial sphere are interdependent to no ends, which is probably a bad thing ultimately not working in the people's favor.

Honestly I feel like the fan culture around the cartoon horse show was the last hurrah of the old internet, everything else was in the process of morphing into the slop blob that we all know and love today but those guys were out there cranking out tons of silly animations and songs and every other kind of artistic pursuit purely for the joy of creating something in a shared cultural space.

we should've eradicated jeets and jews a very long time ago. i'm very disappointed in my ancestors, the British Empire could've easily genocided the entirety of india and made it a beautiful place for our own people.

>>6158281
Britain is in decline for 100 years now. You are a joke to the world. Also the people born in indian and UK today are not the people born there 100 years ago.
You have no military to speak of, your culture is trash, and you got food like mushies peas.
Don't take credit for what your ancestors did, because that is not what you did/doing. There is a wide gap in your fortitude and people like JRR Tolkien who fought in the battle Somme.
Meanwhile israel (my country) has a much more resilient culture, people and willingness to reproduce and fight for the future.
It was not jews nor jeets that nationalized and socialized so much your country is feeble and not willing to reproduce. I have coworkers i know (not jews) that ran from london because they were sick of not being able to use a phone in public cos it'd get snatched. Your parent did it to you bob, and you are stuck trying to revive a sick old horse that just wants to die.
The future for now is not british, because you ruined yourself.

There's no "death" of web 2.0 as it's just an infrastructure for people to interact online. What you actually meant to say is you refused to grow up because you're an irresponsible pathetic manchild who still clings to his childhood. It's not like you actually create or contribute towards internet culture, then and now. It's not like you've done anything to archive and preserve the cultures of the past. Instead all you've shown us is you're a self-pitying faggot who can't take changes, both in your life and the imminent evolution of technology.

There's a difference between "remember when" and feeling superior towards others because you were born earlier. Guess what nigger, I grew up in the 2000s, and the older folks don't get the stuffs I was into, and I can safely say the same about that when they were younger and how my grandparents treated them. You've become just like the old fart who yells at the cloud, but the most ironic of it is you've ZERO self-awareness of it. I'm surprised that you've no killed yourself since you couldn't and refused to adapt to the changing environments.

Youtube would've done fine, more traffic means more users which means growth which means more money to buy more traffic, etc. Just look at Netflix for a similar example where growth just compounds on itself.

The real problem is the copyright problems. Netflix just shows licensed stuff, no problem. Youtube started out by just letting you upload whatever. Movies, music, gore, tv shows, etc. Just make it 240p and under 10 minutes and like 100MB. Be nice and you get to upload in higher resolutions and full hour videos. Random people uploaded entirely tv shows in multiple parts. I remember watching Full Metal Alchemist that way for almost the entire run of the first show. I don't even remember ever thinking once "this resolution sucks ass" or "this is really heavily compressed." I just enjoyed the free anime and the recommendations would just feed me the next episode with minimal effort. 10/10 viewing experience, would waste teenage years on it again.

The only way a site like that doesn't get taken down is because they're tied up with a company like Google who is extremely keen on bending over backwards to ensure the site stays up because they knew they were sitting on a golden ticket for data mining if they could make it work.

I still remember when outside of mainstream anime like Dragonball, Pokemon, digimon and whatever they were showing on fox kids/jetix (and even then they stopped watching in middle of secondary school) it was like pulling teeth to show people new other stuff.

Now that everybody supposedly likes anime, it seems like a monkey's paw wish was made.

j/k. have this version i recorded just 4 u - it's by the same bloke who did the original, this is an updated "anniversary" one from '04.
shows how his animation and detail improved.

shame i had to lower the bitrate and resolution so it's a bit jpg-y. why can't they bump up the filesize limit a bit? i do like working within restrictions to get the most efficient balance between filesize, resolution and bitrate but 6mb seems a bit outdated and restrictive. also why 6? seems arbitrary.

needless to say, it never got aired and there's only these two videos. think it might've been for a potential web platform cc wanted to do.

hopefully another anon can chime in with the full story as i'm old and cba to remind myself of the drama but i was there for it.
