Pseudo-monopolies are great at extinguishing imagination like that, and tbh Google search (as I understand its basic setup) was only as good as it was thanks to timing and few really good competitors.

    One only has to remember all the ‘keywords’ under a youtube video back in the day, it was a nightmare to whittle things down to what you wanted

      If we’re talking “back in the day” you had to remember WHICH website you found the video on, because everyone self published, or chose one of hundreds of sites to submit their content to.
