    I’m 21 and I’ve used VHSs when I was younger, we still have them and a player and I’ve even recorded something on one by myself.

    But genuinely? It is an outdated technology and there is nothing bad if other young people just don’t know about it. The only thing making is special to you is nostalgia, and that’s genuinely okay for you, but other people aren’t worth less for not feeling the same way about it or not knowing it.

      Well, it’s special because that’s where all our most important family videos are, and I don’t know how to get them onto a computer without paying a bunch of money, because we’re poor and can’t splurge on unnecessaries >.<
