The resurgence of a lot of pre-web protocols is interesting, but I'm not entirely sure it's going to be a sticky thing beyond a novelty.
Also 100% agree with the first comment that on an article about the small web half the content is YouTube videos being hilariously tone-deaf ironic. If only there were some other method of sharing videos with people. Perhaps some sort of tube that's peer-to-peer? A PeerTube, if you will.
If only there was a way to communicate without videos. The Mesopotamians had something like that but the technology was unfortunately lost.
While I hate the videofication of everything as much as the next person. Looking at a regular website these days is even worse than YouTube with ads.. Cookies bro? You want to subscribe? Can we send you browser messages?? Here are 10 ads that move the text around that you were just reading..
The art of storytelling existed long before writing.
They have videos on peertube if I recall.
