It came from David Firth's old site, but was crossposted on Newgrounds.
David Firth was part of a circle of internet trolls way back, before he started doing the animation stuff serious. I guess that's probably been memory holed at this point. Anyone remember "I Hate Yanks", and "I Hate Aussies"?
There's a bunch but they all suck because: >you want to watch content, these alternatives have very little >there's no incentives for any Youtuber to switch over >they have the same features as Youtube >they don't have the same features as Youtube
They all immediately develop reputations as being "right wing conspiracy sites", and then the more general audience gets spooked, and doesn't want to go there.
remember when you could find things on the internet and it felt like you were one of the few people to see it, like you just saw the ring tape or something
The biggest 3 offenders for me: >addition of ads >ratings -> like/dislike >removal of video responses
That was always the case (Avril Lavigne - Girlfriend music video was #1 for fricking years) but I agree with you when it comes to VEVO channels and shit like Despacito
Adpocalypse. It was never quite the same. That was the point it became full on: frick the creators and the audience it's about the corporations. It's just getting worse and worse. Everything I watched has died or gone mia. I wish a replacement will surface already.
Salad Fingers was first released on Newgrounds. Also, Newgrounds fricking put 18 and up content away behind a wall unless you "sign in". Motherfricker, I haven't signed into that site in close to 20 years.
When Google bought them.
no when you learn it is youtube instead of utube or u2
This, Brin and the israelite he put in charge killed with monetization, algorithms, censorship, and fricking ADs.
salad fingers comes from newgrounds, you fricking underage zoomer.
No it isn't you worthless homosexual. You don't even deserve to know where.

I'm extremely surprised there hasn't been a good youtube alternative yet.
Why? Don’t you know how much money it takes to maintain that site? Youtube basically runs at a loss.
I've been using Odysee as a movie library.

When pop music videos started dominating the top 100 "most viewed" list.
I first noticed it when late night TV skits were flooding the front page of youtube.

When you stopped clicking those and obsessively started to click on onions faces.
wherever they removed annotations
Salad Fingers is pre-youtube.
When clips from late night talk shows started getting promoted
The day after they monetized it. Now it's 99% click-bait homosexualry and mainstream 'news'.
After the 2000s
