Don't want to date myself, but finding new sites and communities used to be fun.

Are there any cool sites anymore? Besides this one, of course?

I don't completely blame creators for this now, though. Life is way more expensive than it used to be, simply to live. Not to mention there are a lot less jobs (anyone who's been doing the job search thing on hexbear can tell you that). Food prices, rent, etc cost a lot of money and it takes a lot of time. Some people like Hakim have other real jobs, but it means they have less time to edit videos so they have to hire editors.

Capitalism has forced people to monetize their hobbies just to have either the money or time to live.
