if this meme didn't mention tiktok i would guess it was from 2017. who even talks about elsagate anymore?

also anecdotal but personally i would say the visibility of small channels have gone way up these past few years. the amount of videos with very low view counts i see in my feed has gone from basically non existent to half of my recommendations.

I mean I talk about it every now and then, my kid was being shown those videos when they were young. I keep YouTube off any TV's or the kids tablets because YouTube was so irresponsible. For all Disney's and Netflix's faults I'd much rather the kids watch something that's been at least better curated than whatever the hell YouTube kids is.
