Top 10 Websites that Keep Getting Worse as Time Goes On

The Top Ten

  1. deviantART

    DeviantArt is an online artwork, videography, and photography community. The website was launched on August 7, 2000, by Angelo Sotira, Scott Jarkoff, Matthew Stephens, and others. It hosts a wide variety of user-generated art, including digital art, photography, traditional media, and literature.... read more

    This site is absolutely disgusting. Go to one of the "Worst Things on deviantART" type lists and you will see exactly what I mean.

    This site was literally never good.

  2. YouTube

    YouTube is a global video-sharing website headquartered in San Bruno, California, United States. It was created by three former PayPal employees on February 14, 2005. In November 2006, Google acquired YouTube for US$1.65 billion, and it is currently ranked as the second most visited website worldwide... read more

    Reasons YouTube has gotten worse in the last 10 years: more ads, heavier censorship, the algorithm pushing what is trendy and safe, creators chasing monetization instead of creativity, and older niche, weird, interesting content getting buried. Can't forget the corporate brand influence only getting bigger as well. Need I say more?

    Y'all aren't even mentioning the ads, the constant push to get YouTube Premium, and censorship via AI. They are fighting for all of these and alienating so many customers.

  3. Twitch

    Twitch is an American live streaming platform primarily focused on video game content, including esports competitions. The platform also hosts music broadcasts, creative projects, and in real life streaming.

    Twitch is operated by Twitch Interactive, a subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc. It launched... read more

    So many horrible creators on this platform.

    This site is just awful, period.

  4. TikTok

    TikTok, known in China as Douyin, is a short-form video hosting service owned by the Chinese company ByteDance.

    It hosts a wide variety of user-generated videos in genres such as pranks, stunts, tricks, jokes, dance, and general entertainment. Videos range in duration from three seconds up to... read more

    Brain rot for instant gratification types.

    It was always bad.

  5. Discord

    It seems like they haven't learned anything from their controversial "data breach." Now Minecraft wants to add that too, and it's for kids. In 2030 or sooner, we will have a data breach.

  6. Roblox

    Roblox Corporation is an American video game developer based in San Mateo, California. Founded in 2004 by David Baszucki and Erik Cassel, the company developed Roblox, a game platform and game creation system released in 2006. As of July 2025, the company continues to operate and has significantly expanded... read more

    Now they are trying to make the avatars look very realistic. You can call this game "Noblox," and this is what they are doing for their 20th anniversary.

    I just stopped playing Roblox at this point. They run into a big hole every single time.

    When they added the age verification, I barely started coming online.

  7. Reddit

    Reddit (stylized in lowercase) is an American social news aggregation, content rating, and discussion website. Registered users, known as "Redditors," submit content including links, text posts, images, and videos. Other users then vote these submissions up or down.... read more

    Reasons Reddit is worse. Convos on there feel like an echo chamber, karma farming, repost bots galore, the site decides what shows up first based on popularity or what keeps you scrolling instead of what was newly posted, and old niche communities are dying or going private.

    I lean left nowadays, but the lefties on Reddit actively hijack non-political subs and bring all their bot friends and downvote people who are trying to push topics back on track. These people can't possibly be real.

    Worst site ever.

  8. IMDb

    The Internet Movie Database is an online database of information related to films, television programs, and video games, including cast, production crew, fictional characters, biographies, plot summaries, trivia, and reviews. It is operated by IMDb.com, Inc., a subsidiary of Amazon. IMDb was launched... read more

    Reasons I think IMDb is getting worse.

    Review bombing, forums got shut down, more ads, and a corporate feel. Ratings feel less trustworthy, and it feels like promotion and marketing instead of a big community film database.

    I hate IMDb so much.

  9. IXL

    When I used this back in, I don't know, 8th grade, I literally almost threw my computer across the room over this.

  10. Album of the Year

    I think the website is getting better with the updates, but some of the people can disrespect your opinion. Opinion bashers, opinionated users.

    Like with this one review I did on Meghan Trainor's All About That Bass: What the F**k do you mean you like this song? It's literal s***. How could you like this garbage? And I used to type with capital letters back then until about when I made the Barbie list and started to use lowercase, and he bullied me for it.

    I also said this Ariana Grande song sounded like Taylor Swift and it was giving Taylor vibes, in my opinion.

    13. The Contenders

  13. 4chan

    4chan is an anonymous English-language imageboard website launched by Christopher "moot" Poole in October 2003. It hosts a wide variety of boards dedicated to topics including anime, video games, cooking, weapons, music, literature, history, fitness, politics, and sports.... read more

    This site is just bad. Enough said.

  14. FlashThemes

  15. TheTopTens

    TheTopTens is a countdown-based website launched on November 18, 2005, which consists of user-generated content.

    Visitors can vote, comment, like other comments, and view user-created remixes. Registered users have access to additional features on the site, such as creating lists, remixes, posts... read more

    Ah yes, the obligatory adding of this website because everyone likes to be negative. Yes, it was better back then. Yes, it had a user base. Blah.

  16. Character.ai

    Ever since they removed multiple chats and the edit button, it's been getting worse. Now they have age verification.

  17. Vyond

  18. Plotagon

  19. Pinterest

    I'm on this site, but I found a couple of "The Music Freaks" leaked Season 2 images. How did they not get their membership taken away? I know some people can't wait for TMF Season 2, but why are you leaking it to non-members? I just look at photos and not the leaks. They need to stop leaking Rosy's membership before they get banned.

  20. Wikipedia

    Wikipedia is a multilingual free online encyclopedia launched on January 15, 2001, by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger. It is maintained by a community of volunteers who contribute and edit content using a wiki-based platform. These contributors are commonly referred to as Wikipedians.... read more

    "Please donate 3 dollars to us." SHUT UP! I will not and never will do this! You guys get more than enough traffic by being the first results in Google searches, and that generates your revenue and such!

  21. X

    X (formerly known as Twitter) is an online news and social networking service where users post and interact with messages, also known as "tweets," limited to 280 characters. The platform was rebranded to X by Elon Musk in July 2023, following his acquisition of Twitter in October 2022.... read more

    Love how ever since Elon took over, there's always some weird error and such. Many times it's "Something went wrong" or "Your account may not be allowed to perform this action."

    Also, the "For You" section never gives you what you want, and recently they did something similar to the "Following" tab. Oh, and they also log you out automatically even if you have cookies saved.
