Web 1.0 is roughly the early internet up to the start of Facebook. Web 2.0, which we are in now, is the consolidation of the internet into a series of “walled gardens”, where most people engage with the internet though one or more platforms (FB, Twitter, etc), the rub being that these platforms are moderated (and privatized). Web 3.0 is not a thing (yet?), but it’s the idea that decentralization through blockchain technology will create a new “phase” of the internet

Can you live without YouTube ?

Today in a Privacy community a post about YouTube. No word about privacy but all about which software or settings are needed to watch videos and the money needed to host videos. It made me wonder whether some of you can lead a meaningful life without YouTube. Or will a cold turkey bring the worst out of you ?

So I think the answer for me is no, but I definitely think I use it very differently than most people who watch YouTube. I don’t watch new things on YT, I don’t follower any YouTubers, it’s basically a repository for MST3K for me, old music videos, and then I will pull movie clips/scans of old films from it for my academic work. I don’t know who the baby gronk rizz king is or whatever, but I’ve found a lot of stuff on YouTube that I probably would not have found elsewhere (other than sometimes Internet Archive)

Also, I always watch in private and I use a downloader tool to make my own copies
