Internet culture & memes Videos Recommended on Hacker News (170)

Internet culture & memes is one of the 150 topics Hacker News readers organize their video recommendations around. These 170 videos each earned real recommendations in real HN threads between 2008 and 2026 — 202 recommendations in total — and they're ranked by how many separate months the community kept coming back to them, not by view count.

Internet culture: early web, memes, viral videos, forums, social media history, Wikipedia, YouTube creators, online communities, nostalgia for Windows 95 and the 90s web.

Why HN keeps sending people here — on This Is Phil Fish: “possibly the most important video on youtube - is "This Is Phil Fish"[1] by Innuendo Studios.” — an HN commenter, 2022.
