Like if I look at places like Weibo it doesn't seem like the pre-corpo net at all.

Am the only one who doesn't want the internet to be a "wild" place?

Why do you not want the internet to be a "wild" place?

[–] pcalau12i@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I prefer some basic level of stability and moderation or else things turn into 4chan.

I'm not talking about 4chan, but rather pre-adpocalypse YouTube

I've been using YouTube since back when they had a 5 star rating system. I'm not sure I'd describe it as "wild" it was just more dominated by smaller creators. The smaller creators still exist there's just a lot of other content as well so they can be harder to find. I do like plenty of big creators as well. The only thing that particularly annoys me these days if that sometimes if you try to search for things the results are biased in favor of corporate news.
