Sure, but think about it this way: Did you think ten years ago that the major movers and shakers online would still be dominant ten years later?

Back then, the idea that the likes of Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, et cetera still being dominant in the 2020s was considered highly unlikely, given that ten years before the image was posted, we were still in the age of Limewire, Geocities, Rotten.com, and SomethingAwful. Even back then it was known that Youtube was a massive money sink for Google, so it being superseded felt like the natural course of things on the internet…until the calvinball reactions came along to basically entrench the major players and resulted in the sclerotic shitshow that we’re all dealing with right now.

I find it both wild and on some level pretty egregious that the internet as it existed in 2012 is still the same internet that we have today.

Mind you, this was posted ten years ago. Ten long years of enshittification ago.

Yeah I was about to say…

Is this still relevant today?

The comment system just keeps getting worse with every update. I can’t believe how annoying it is, compared to what it once was.

Sadly, this is pretty true. Youtube went to hell after the copyright bullshit back in December, not counting the “new” comment system they implemented back in November. Several of my favorite videos on Youtube have either been taken down by copyright infringement or the accounts of those who made the videos were terminated for the same reasons. Its just awful.

Sooo, where is the bad advice here?

Dailymotion is perfect!

They have the mentally advanced series on DM now.

@The Twelfth Doctor Whoof  
Yea..I know it’s being sarcastic, but I really do think dailymotion is better :p

Actually… considering Dailymotion’s famously lax rules regarding copyright enforcement and obscenity, Fluttershy’s kinda got a point this time.
 
_{^{They still wouldn’t take Mentally Advanced, though; granted that might be because Greg can’t get ad revenue there.}}

@TheAbridgenator  
soft core? No you can have pretty hardcore porn on dailymotion :p

@Randomosaur  
From what I’ve heard, pretty much every music video is blocked there. It’s all because of these guys.

@Page Turner  
….read the whole reply chain to get the full context.
 
TL;DR for your lazy eyes:  
YT is acting up whit a bad case of “fuck you! i`ll do what i want!” for me. so right now, FS is making sense.

Loading time on Dailymotion sucks though.

@paluzna  
“YT is way better than dailymotion”
 
Uhh, Yeah. That’s the joke. That’s why the meme is called BAD advice Fluttershy.

@StarBot  
horribad quality pic, its not funy enough and YT is way better than dailymotion in a lot of aspects, at least it was so the last time i checked….

@Ripple_Shine  
‘Course, I guess that would make me kind of a hypocrite, I still use YouTube any given day of the week, because that’s where all my favorite material is.
 
Me and my incomplete thoughts.

@Ripple_Shine  
Who had to move to DailyMotion as a result. I’m not sure about their policies, but I don’t think they can be pushed around as easily as YouTube.

She’s right, you know. HiT entertainment took down one of my favorite YTP makers (WTLNetwork).

@paluzna  
Wait, why vote down?

So Dailymotion is good?  
I never tried using it, the design don’t appeal me..but if you’re saying it’s useful..

@The Smiling Pony  
YouTube is blocked in Germany?

OP what are you doing?
 
This is BAD advice Fluttershy.
 
You’re not supposed to give GOOD advice!

AT LEAST IT’S NOT BLOCKED IN GERMANY
