My Immortal Complete Internet Historian

Been watching #StrangeÆons’ Oral History of #DashCon, and it’s fascinating. Yea okay it was a part of #Internet #History, but also comparing it to #InternetHistorian’s DashCon video, you get a weird feeling of something akin to Internet archaeology. Like reading about an event from the views of two opposing societies from thousands of years ago. Except it was 10 years ago and in Chicago.

Oh no. The dev of a new YT player for #Gnome chooses to illustrate it by showing the channel of a nazi and a fraud.

I can't know if the developer knows, of course. But we know that this kind of uncertainty is weaponized by the "alt right" all the time. So, how does one deal with it?

Also, the dev probably won't influence what content the users of the app actually sees, so how much does it really matter if the app is good? I feel these are difficult questions.

#YouTube is very smart. So smart that it concluded that, since I watch videos by #hbomberguy, I should also check out #InternetHistorian.

For those who are out of the loop, Harris (hbomberguy) made a long video on plagiarism on YouTube and one of his examples was "Internet Historian".

It seems that Harris's viewers are doing their due diligence by checking to see if the video was exaggerating the problems with I.H. which the suggestion #Algorithm literally can't process.
