    This reminds me of the kids who would roleplay together in the comments of book sales online, or the kids who get all their tumblr and twitter posts they can find through pinterest when everything else is blocked or they aren't allowed to access other websites. Humans finding outlets wherever they can for their feelings and creativity, anonymously confiding things they can't to anyone in their real life. It makes me wanna cry hearing about how kind people were towards this person.
    What started off as a very bizarre thing that looked like a troll ended up simply being someone lonely who thought they'd found a public yet private place to voice their thoughts, and they ended up finding a loving community of people who want them to do well in life. Sometimes, the internet is good.

      no matter how awful it may seem sometimes, the internet has been the single most positive thing to have ever happened to the human species. never before could we communicate this much with each other. never before did humans have the capacity to gain the ability to see virtually any information without an environmentally forced bias and we never had the opportunity to access conflicting information to those forced biases before too. the internet is basically the closest thing to an actual real life religious experience. it gave us access to our humanity when delusional inbr3d maniacs sought to have total control over what people were allowed to learn and what people were allowed to discuss. the internet is the first and only time humans have ever had a widespread autonomy over any aspect of their lives.

    i have a friend that passed away in 2007. to this day, i still go to the message board where we met, leave her messages, comment on how life is for both me and the actor we are a fan of. i know that no one will ever read these messages, i know that she cannot see them, and i know that the board does not even remember her. but it feels like i'm able to be open and free about anything i want to say. i used to stay up for hours at night chatting with her about tv shows, the actor, and life in general. she was such a special person that anytime i get news, i want to immediately run and tell it to her. i really feel for this person, because they found comfort somewhere and went with it. it's really hard to be lonely.

    I have OCD so this somewhat resonates with me. I often have beats, phrases, quotes, etc. from videos, games, shows, and songs play in my head all the time (intrusive thoughts). any moment my mind isn't occupied this happens. i've always loved shitpost style memes, probably stemming from me repetitively watching ytps in elementary school. i do the same thing now, i become obsessed with certain phrases or melodies and i have to search it up and watch it. sometimes it's cathartic, like with old school runescape music barraging into my brain. when i go and listen to the music, it brings me back to my childhood when i would play the game with my older brother, we would have so much fun.

      I don't show emotions, I have them, I have empathy, it's just that I don't know how to put them out of my brian: so this video made me cry, on the inside, because I somehow felt seen by that mysterious person.
      I swear I live in the past. All the media I consume. The videos I go back to. The music. Time and time and time again and I don't get bored of it all, in fact, I need it to be that way. It's... like air to my lungs.

    I just discovered this channel (woo, lost media list algorithm) and feel compelled to leave a comment on this video, even if it is 7 months after posting. This is the sort of wholesome online adventure that is rare to occur and even more rare to learn about, and I really want to thank this video's creator for sharing it with us.
    And for anyone who reads this buried comment: I wish you the best. I hope you find things that bring you joy and comfort in this world that can be so chaotic and cruel.
    I hope Spotify calls you out on how many times you've heard your favourite song this year, I hope that stuffed bear you dragged everywhere as a kid still gets to live in your bedroom, I hope you find friends that make you laugh, and I hope you come back to your favourite youtube videos when you feel that itch for something familiar.

I had this one RUclips playlist of music I loved, and when my dad passed away I didn’t like any of those songs anymore. They didn’t make me feel the same happiness.

      I have the same thing with the game Resident Evil 4, it was one of the only games my best friend had on the Wii so we would just play it over and over again in the late 00s-early 10s until I'm pretty sure we wore out the disc or something because it glitched out on us.
      We're still best friends, but we're adults now with adult problems and responsiblities, we don't get to hang out and talk every day like when we were teenagers. In fact we live in different parts of the country so we're lucky if we get to hang out more than once a year.
      But I sometimes go back and listen to the soundtrack of that game and remember when things seemed simpler, the save room music especially makes me feel like I'm straight back in her parents living room eating pizza.
      I haven't been leaving comments for 15 years but still like I get it. It's like a moment of time in your life you just wanna go back and hang out in every now and then especially when things get tough.

    My assumption is the average RUclips user isn’t of the age where a strong connection to rock band would be resonant with them, but I do think it’s hard to understate how transcendent it was to just hang out with your friends and play a full band on rock band for a few hours. I have never really enjoyed a RUclips video as much as the video’s subject, but I totally understand yearning for those days again.

    This reminds me of old GameFAQs forums. You could search up really obscure games and find that the forum had only like 3 users who were just friends using it as their own personal chat room. Discussion wouldn't be about the game at all.
    It was sort of a "thing to do" to hunt down obscure games with empty forums and "claim" it as your own space. I wonder if people still do this today. I havent used GameFAQs in over a decade, as RUclips kinda replaced all that.

      My online home since 2018 has been a small game studio forum. It's not exactly dead (currently 7 people online), people come and go (I miss so many of them), but the game most of us originally joined for isn't being updated anymore.
      What's funny is that the forum is divided into 4 sections, one for each game as well as an off-topic one, and no one from the two other games' forums ever interacts with the people in the off-topic or first game sections. There's a little overlap between the communities of game 1 and game 3, but the area for game 2 is a whole other (likely much less active) community there and we treat it like the shadow lands from the Lion King.
