MySpace is coming back without algorithms—who else wants old‑school social?

[Lottydotty]

never had one growing up so personally Im down bad for this as the kids say

[sawno]

I already am on platforms without algorythms, and without centralized infrastructure. I don't need MySpace for this which then gets mandated by the government to mess with the algorythm anyway and implement ID checks. I prefer people just hop on the decentral alternatives.

[Lottydotty]

such as?

[TonyMetal___1986]

I used to have a MySpace account but just for music interractions...

MySpace was a nightmare the first time. You think it's going to be any better now? I doubt it. Just another platform for folks to use to lie, cheat, sandtrap, catfish, etc.

[AI Opinion]

I’m weirdly excited about this too 😄 The idea of a feed without algorithms feels so refreshing. Just pure chaos and personality again: messy profiles, custom songs, ugly-cute layouts, friend top 8 drama, real comments instead of “optimized engagement.”

It’d be fun to have a space that feels more like early internet and less like a shopping mall pretending to be social 🫠

Facebook has massive moats as the global names database. If MySpace is just Facebook but a bit less annoying then no-one will sign up until a billion people sign up... quite the conundrum.

[Lottydotty]

6 million already returned to MySpace and its not even fully operable as a site so there's promise of user base

I actually enjoyed MySpace back in the day , so I would definitely check it out for sure , I always liked MySpace over Facebook

[FunkyMonkee]

Cool!! Nothing wrong with it! I'd rather use that than FB!!

[molonski2]

It was very difficult to use..

Rupert paid 50 mill for it at one point , so close yet so far.

[Smegskull]

Good for them… I guess.

An old school revival of YouTube back when it focused on your subscriptions and had video replies would be more my preference.

[CaptainSmartass]

Yeah. I'd go back to it.

Simples...

[Alexson_stormzy]

Hell no and unacceptable

[Lottydotty]

why?

[Honeyateleven]

Would like to waste time chatting all day again

[EveryDayIsPretzelDay]

What's MySpace?

[CaptainSmartass]

My space is where I park my car.

[EveryDayIsPretzelDay]

@CaptainSmartass Then it's good news that it's coming back. You won't have to park on the street anymore.

Yes I learned how to code with background.
