@matrix >some soynerd-/posthipster-looking fag-on-the-rag according to the vid title Is this anything I need to watch in full, or do I get the gist of it from the first few seconds?

@igeljaeger @cowanon @matrix
Are you trying to say idubz is a part of the golden years of youtube? :akkothink:
@igeljaeger @cowanon @matrix
Fuck no. The actual golden years were already ramping down by the time he came aboard.
@alyx @igeljaeger @cowanon @matrix the actual golden years were anywhere before the google plus buyout. Things got increasily downhill when they added copyright strikes and then total shit with the adpocalypse making it so people can't swear or talk about certain things
@igeljaeger @alyx @cowanon @matrix I meant integration, after google plus failed they just kinda merged it with youtube
@cirno @igeljaeger @cowanon @matrix
As far as I'm concerned, Youtube's golden era was pretty much finished by around 2010.

@alyx I remember when YT started taking down vids for swearing that was around 2010. @cowanon @matrix @igeljaeger @cirno

@shampoobottle As soon as you started seeing good production values that signalled the beginning of the end. The appeal of YouTube back in the day was that you were watching ordinary people that were just like you. Hence "You"Tube. @a7 @igeljaeger @matrix @alyx @cirno @cowanon

@cirno If forget where I saw this but someone made the apt observation that it went from being YouTube to ThemTube. Basically television 2.0. @cowanon @matrix @shampoobottle @alyx @igeljaeger @a7
