1. Theatrical films cost dozens of millions of dollars in development, pre-production, production, post-production, distribution and marketing. This would need huge investment in such productions and salaries, and this is unlikely that it will turn into a profit.

2. Most movie studios and film production firms apply for tax incentives, in which you don't receive funding on your own, but from a local film office.

3. Theatrical film is a pretty saturated sector, with lots of generic horrors, dramas and comedies, and even Hollywoodian superheros flooding the market. So, this would be more difficult for a well-produced production in that area to reach the audience.

4. Most movie-only studios are located in Los Angeles, NYC, New Orleans, Atlanta and Albuquerque metro areas, making units rarer outside such hubs.

5. Two words: talent shortage. Depending on where your movie studio is located in, local talent in the area is harder to attract, with its professionals moving to obvious hubs. This would need me to invest heavily in training, no exceptions.

6. The Midwest and the Northeast have a history of unpopular filmmaking, with its founders born in said places of the both regions moving out. When you live in the Midwest or the Northeast, you rarely see the most brilliant scene: production happening during the shooting dates.

7. In addition, acquiring and relocating such studios will never, ever work, as you will always face resistance all day. If you do so, this will be no better than all of the resistances of those huge company buyouts and mergers.

First, their reasons why they're apologizing simply don't work, as they give poor reasons for the videos they made. Second, the videos aren't explained well, so they hardly apologize anything, like repeating the "I'm sorry" phrase. Thirdly, they're solely made to make money and engagement.

The most notorious examples of such videos are those made by the Vyond community, mostly due to the controversial nature of the content. All of such apologies as described in this post have never, ever worked.

To end this post, they're an example of how NOT to apologize for your bad actions when you're trying to apologize anything!

They just show angry text about something the uploader hates, often with profanity and/or ALL CAPS, depicting their own avatars being angry and angry effects. Some videos cannot handle dislikes or criticism at all, as they tell their viewers not to dislike or criticize their content.

Some videos, however, can be quiet or calm, but they're rare. And Angry Message Videos are still being made to this day, but it's in a declining rate. They're one of the formulas that show the toxicity of the old Vyond community, and fall under the category of amateur Vyond videos.

To emphasize the extreme danger of Web2, below is an overview of four elements explaining how they censor you and your content, controlling every corner of their platforms.

1. Autocomplete Blacklist

The most obvious element of Web2 censorship, they have a list of blocked words and terms for autocomplete search queries that can literally apply to everything, from products to even places of the world.

When the user types a certain term included in that list, it's most likely that the autocomplete feature will vanish after entering it, making the feature mostly useless, unless it's useful on Web3.

Any term can be blacklisted in their those lists, whether by a human or an algorithm, and there is no way to get rid of this kind of censorship. No matter what you search, this your first reason to leave Web2 for Web3.

2. Shadowbanning

It is an unneeded and pointless system, it allows it to obscure content and accounts from search results or algorithms, making these stuff harder to reach, and even grows the signs for you to leave Web2.

The Twitter Files, launched after acquisition by Elon Musk before being renamed to X, shows the engrossing signs of Web2 censorship that was once opaque before it was revealed to the public.

3. Content Deletions

One of the enduring reasons to leave Web2, and is no better than shadowbanning. They have access to their content database, and they have these actions: delete the post and warn the user. However, if there is too many content deletions, the account will be suspended or banned until they have to appeal the action.

Any content, even good things, can get deleted by human or AI moderators, and once it's gone, you can't repost it at all!

4. Account Suspensions

The final and one of the most Orwellian practices by Web2, they have access to what they can do with their users, and if they find out that they're doing something wrong, they can suspend or ban it until they appeal one day, with little-to-no chance of ever allowing them to create new accounts or use third-party accounts to post their content.

Once your account gets suspended or banned, you lose everything unless you have archives of your content, and you can't get it back, make a new account or use other's accounts. If you try to go back to these platforms without appealing, they can ban you again for allegations of "ban evasion".

Web2 platforms are easy targets

Web2 platforms have been targets for governments, schools, and organizations, whom have sued or sent letters to them. Two examples: a fine to YouTube resulted in many videos having comments disabled by bots by 2020, likely anticipated future events. In addition, a lawsuit in California was filed against Meta and Google by a woman who accused them for designing addictive products for minors.

Luckily, protocols and Web3 barely have been targeted by them, as they run on independent or cloud servers that require them to function normally.

Switching Web2 platforms solves nothing

After recent events and decision that destroyed Web2 platforms and their communities, the instinct is to move to another Web2 platform. This is pointless, a new Web2 platform will operate with the same rules and the same illegal systems that control everything, even if they claim to support free speech as advertised.

Alternative Web2 platforms, like all mainstream Web2 platforms, can get notified by authorities from certain regions that would also ruin them and their community. The only solution is to move to protocols and Web3 instead of alternative Web2 platforms.

Notorious cases of Web2 censorship

Below are five notorious Web2 censorship cases:

1. My future multimedia studio was banned from Instagram when I tried to make an account for themselves in early-2020s, proving they absolutely hate small businesses.

2. Personally, I got banned from Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Truth Social, and BandLab in 2025, and from DeepAI in 2026. There was never any explanation for why I got banned from six Web2 platforms, despite following their rules.

3. Geyser was banned from Instagram in 2026, and gave zero explanation about why they got banned. This has resulted in them migrating to Nostr and never reversing again.

4. A lot of former YouTubers got demonetized or terminated for their good content, after the introduction of the so-called "advertiser-friendly" policies, and has caused a lot of them to move to alternative video-sharing platforms, like Odysee for example.

5. A similar situation happened to former Twitch streamers, who were got banned for their same innocuous actions, and has led to them migrating to other platforms that have live-streaming capabilities.

Conclusion

The decline of Web2 is one of the reasons Web2 refugees and Web3 natives exist, and after reading the elements you will have to plan transitioning to Web3 to escape Web2's paltry practices that continues today, and you have to watch Web2 disappear from everywhere.

Once you move to or become a native on Web3, you have full control of what you post and your account access, and monetization uses most often cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum or Solana, which are digital currencies that are protected with a cryptography to deter counterfeiting and fraudulent transactions.

After that, it's time to start using protocols and Web3 instead of Web2 platforms.

All of them are competition shows, which are super repetitive, clichéd and formulaic. They use a lot of copyrighted music, sound effects and characters, on the likes of Rick Astley, Nintendo, or Disney, which make them more unoriginal than original, and clearly show their severe lack of general creativity.

Some tend to cash in on "latest trends" and modern memes instead of something fresh and original. They're hard to watch, boring and tiresome, and lack ambition and enthusiasm.

Similar to most object shows, their production process takes longer than fast-paced productions, causing a lot of delays and even outright cancellations. Like amateur Web2 posts, they only care about making money and engagement than originality, and makes them look more like Hollywood than non-Hollywood.

There are good narrative object shows that are fun to watch and entertaining, similar to good competition object shows.

However, many alternatives also embraced mainstream-style censorship, like Pinterest censoring autocomplete queries or unjustified account suspensions, which deters numerous internet users from moving to those alternative Web2 services.

This post will show the first and only reason why most of them fail, but Web3 doesn't.

The Most Obvious Reason: Censorship, Censorship Everywhere!

Despite supporting free speech, many alternatives, especially centralized ones, still censor everything, even good things, have deleted innocent accounts, and some banned from returning to them outright just for the excuses of "sockpuppeting" or "ban evasion", and they violate the First Amendment of the Constitution or any similar amendments outside the United States.

Two Examples

Below are two horrendous examples of censorship.

1. On October 7, 2025, after interacting with a then-recent post by President Trump, my Truth Social account got yanked for the allegations of "Terms of Service violations", and gave zero explanation for why I got banned. Because of this, I decided to leave TS forever.

2. Pinterest censors autocomplete queries that can literally apply to everything, even places of the world, and there is no way to disable that feature. For example, they censored the word "autism", no joke.

Even if the moderation teams allow me to return to where I got banned, I might return to those places, but there is an extremely low chance.

Why Web3 is Better Than Web2

Web3 is a beneficial Edison-esque invention for the following reasons below.

1. While some are centralized, many Web3 services and platforms are decentralized, which they have human moderation teams and not controlled by a big corporation.

2. Many Web3 ones use protocols, which, instead of storing data on massive Silicon Valley-level data centers, work as admin-managed relays running on their very own actual servers or virtual private servers (VPS) and to make sure users can access to what such relays contain.

3. Web3 can't live without cryptocurrencies on the likes of Bitcoin, Ethereum or Solana, because decentralization must have such digital financial technology to generate revenue or payments, and this is a pre-requisite for our technology.

4. Web3 cares about free speech and financial freedom, a lot of Web2 equivalents censor and demonetize everything, and for the one thing nobody said in these innovative Web3 services: "My video got demonetized!".

Conclusion

This post highlights the sole reason why most alternative services and platforms fail, but Web3 doesn't, as well as two notorious cases of mainstream-like censorship and the second heading proving that Web3 grows over the soon-to-be outdated Web2. This post aligns with my last year's migration from Web2 to Web3 in order to escape censorious practices that Web2 does.

Alright, thanks for reading!😉

The videos are basically the same thing: the PNGs and JPGs of a victim, the uploader and their friends, with the victim crying and others showing angry stares to them. If the victim is a fictional character, it shows that they take their hatedom too seriously, and if the victim is a user, they violate the platform's ToS or rules as harassment and cyberbullying are banned in most communities for good reasons.

A lot of people have stopped producing them, and these videos are becoming obsolete but I don't know what year or decade they will fall in obscurity.

Below is a recap of events that defined me on this year.

1 - Account Takedowns

This is the first thing I want to repeat, I did some posts complaining about my accounts getting banned from Facebook, Instagram, Truth Social and BandLab, despite following their rules, until my dad advised me to avoid exposing my political opinions with frequency to avoid controversy.

My Instagram was extremely short-lived, lasting two days until my profile got banned for being a "fake account" on May 2025 after posting my very own works and projects, and a similar situation happened when I attempted to create a new Facebook account on June 2025 but my profile got autobanned for attempted ban evasion.

On October 7, 2025, after replying to a then-latest post by US President Donald Trump, my Truth Social account was taken down for unknown reasons, claiming it was "Terms of Service violations", making it also short-lived, and I had no idea why I got banned from that platform.

On December 12, 2025, my BandLab profile was deleted for "Community Guideline violations", which all of my original music track uploads are now unplayable there, but they are safely backed up on audio files to keep them from becoming literal lost media while they are being moved to Audius.

2 - Exit from Mainstream Web2 Social Media Platforms

On August 2025, after having been extremely dissatisfied with mainstream Web2 social networks, I was forced to move to Web3 socials such as Nostr, Odysee or Status, which I saw things like too many users bypassing censorship by changing letters on the words, good videos getting demonetized and good accounts getting yanked.

I'm very satisfied with Web3 now and I will never give it up, Web3 is a beacon of basic free speech and financial freedom, something that very little happened on Web2 services. Web3 is a much advanced and freer successor to Web2, with innovations like blockchains and artificial intelligence taking the environment's place.

With Web2 platforms, you have to self-censor the parts of your stuff. And with Web3 platforms you don't need to self-censor, which makes this technique completely useless.

3 - Started Using Crypto

In the age of banks tracking what you do, physically and digitally, cryptocurrency is a hard-to-track financial technology that only exists digitally and protected with a cryptography to deter counterfeits and fraudulent transactions. Examples of cryptocurrencies include Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana.

I knew little about it on the beginning until my knowledge of it grew drastically after downloading crypto wallets on late-December 2025, which was a great Christmas period and this year is ending for now at the time of this writing. To avoid forgetting addresses I had to note all of them on my note-taking app and print it on paper, ensuring that any trusted third-party can send crypto to these addresses. I have heard of them before but I didn't start using them until this year for extra sources.

4 - The Crayonians, The Objectians, and more!

On early-2025, I created new franchises known as The Crayonians, The Objectians and The Micronal. The Crayonians, formerly The Crayons, sets the adventures and misadventures of anthropomorphic crayons on its place, while The Objectians set similar adventures on its self. The Micronal is about a group of four childhood friends, whom a simple cardboard box changed their lives when they were kids, have new bizarre, often unusual adventures that would otherwise risk losing their lives by facing threats from specific entities. TC and TO started as artworks, while TM started as a novel. I created these franchises for stress relief and calm.

Currently, all of my franchises, including a newly-created The Crownattevers franchise, are on hold due to running out of ideas until sometime on the near future. Both of the early iterations of The Micronal novels from Wattpad are now lost media after a cancelled second iteration of the same franchise. A similar situation happened to the early iterations of comic books from TC and TO, as well as an early TC short story.

5 - Partial Lost Works Recovery

Sometime in this year, I had to visit Wayback Machine and Pinterest in search for archives of my DeviantArt works, whose accounts are now deleted, and save them on my archives. Only 200+ deviations were recovered, including an early countryball comic, out of 600+ works from the said platforms, most of my works from 2014-2025 are rendered lost and are unlikely to be recovered, and it's uncertain whether or not my pre-2014 works still survived to this day.

Examples of rediscovered works include a fan crossover of numerous PNGs slapped onto Mojave wallpaper, a security camera meme, a photo of a phone with an PNG slapped onto it and one of my final Sketchup 3D watercraft models from 2017 before leaving the Virtual Sailor and Vehicle Simulator communities on that same year.

Conclusion

2025 is ending as a mixed year with both rewards and consequences, as well as a year for my very own "innovations" and the migration from Web2 to Web3. Like most of year recaps and retrospectives, blog highlights that no year is fully perfect, as nothing is 100% perfect, since good and bad things can happen anytime in anywhere, be it in the United States or in any foreign places.

Thanks for reading my very first Paragraph post! I hope you enjoy it!
