Having a family friendly site of 4chan aka reddit is not hurting anyone.

platforms are a bad idea
relative to distributed systems that enable people to own their own identity
and communicate on their own terms

Wot

Reddit is terrible

Reddit is a shilling and genuine fake news platform lol

I'd love to go back to the pre-Facebook, pre-Google profile internet, but the cat's out of the bag.

I don't use reddit - I also don't care that it exists
as it should be

Go back to what? Usenet?

oooh daddy!

there's not really an option to go back

but you can reclaim some of the ideas we had before web 2.0
and move forward

signal is a great example, imho

There's always an option to reinvigorate the Internet's classic decentralized social media protocols.

you could build a lot around that

and the core is funded by a $50mm foundation

so it isn't going anywhere any time soon

The good old days after far behind you. The net has grown by orders of magnitude since then. Discovery and introduction, aggregation and shared spaces. Having a few of theses places is not a bad thing. Massive sites where I could let my kid run loose.

you know... the 2 largest distributors of child porn in the world, right?

He's too young for that. But it's not far off. I

I set yep all his profiles. I have acces to all of them.

I know exacly what he's up to.

adult supervision remains mandatory

there is no "run wild" that is actually responsible

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrRzED2vOHA I like how CNN prints a misleading title even for something like this. It would be more accurate to say he teared up or choked up, but they use "cries" instead

I highly recommend all of you watch it though

If you just want to see when he "cries," skip to a minute before the end

can we talk about the controversial move to not put pewdiepie in rewind but instead TO ADD HIS CHAIR

Fuck YouTube rewind

https://youtu.be/YbJOTdZBX1g?t=3m26s PEWDS CHAIR IS IN REWIND

More like fortnite rewind

I don't get why Fortnite is in everything. Are Epic games paying for plugs everywhere, or are companies just trying to hop on the zoomer bandwagon?

Zoomers don't have money. I don't understand why companies would want to advertise to them.
