YouTube Revival

A YouTube Revival is a website, just like a YouTube Alternative, that is dedicated to replicate YouTube's early years from 2005 to 2013 (sometimes 2014 and above) Sites like: BitView, KamTape, YouView, SilasTube, EraCast, and PamView all count as "YouTube Revivals", Some can be accurate to the source material or can be creative and make interesting features (Example: SilasTube and KamTape), some obscure revivals are never seen or basically dead due to vulnerabilities and such, XizTune and MayTube are good examples.

Guy1: Hey, have you heard of KamTape?
Guy2: What the hell is that?
Guy1: It's a YouTube Revival
Guy2: Oh.
