The Oldest Videos on YouTube 

Back when RU-vid was about the average everyday person

Fun fact as well, RU-vid was actually created because the 3 founders wanted to share a video online but couldn't find any sites to share it on so they made RU-vid as a way of sharing their videos. RU-vid was also originally supposed to be a video dating site

"RU-vid is a library, so those videos can be viewed forever."

I miss old RU-vid. One of my favorite past time memories as a kid in the 2000s.

RU-vid was an incredible Library. Unfortunately they have removed so many important videos that it is compromised.

Jawed actually gets hacked a lot and that also explains the various questionable promotions and rickrolls

I still miss the old RU-vid, no ridiculous ads, both like and dislike buttons were available, almost no restrictions and free for all. I think as soon as they start taking it as a business, the original RU-vid was gone.

RU-vid used to be a library but there was a massive cleansing 😢

The fact that even the founder of RU-vid hated how they removed the dislikes just shows how much of a horrible decision it was

Wait until RU-vid takes it down for violating community guidelines

So innocent, so unpretentious, no clickbait, and everyone was just curious. Man those days were golden.

He isn't the one that updates the description. He is hacked a lot. He wouldn't shout out some random minecraft channel, they just hack him and change the description, as well as comment on other videos.

RU-vid isn't a permanent library. I watched a documentary on deaths in Disneyland. Left a comment, came back a week later and it was gone. Sorry, this video is now private.

Editing this so you don't know why this has so many likes 😳

I never thought RU-vid was founded by an elephant

Who remembers when RU-vid had a star rating system?

The fact that RU-vid is almost 20 years old is insane.

You know you fucked up when one of the guys who made youtube doesn't agree with their decision 🤣

RU-vid is the closest thing we have to time travel.

fun fact Jawed was one of the inventors/founders of RU-vid at that time
