as a kid i used to spend my time online playing dragon & horse flash games where i could dress em up or play as them. this video is a really good watch highly recommend. theres no safe spaces for kids online anymore, its all corporate social media or big toxic games with barely any proper moderation
Club Penguin, Feral Heart, Animal Jam were all popular for a reason. Anonymous usage where you could play with other kids from around the world. There use to be low-stake flash games that kids could play over and over.
