A community for anyone who misses the "old web". Inspired by a post I made asking for examples of websites with an old school vibe. This community can be used to post links to old style websites, directories of websites, etc.

This blog was posted by its creator under a lemmy post discussing the issues with modern websites. It is delightfully minimalist, and the post I linked is a call to action to return the early web. As well, they have some interesting stuff linked on their site.

I so want this movement to properly take off. Let us get back to finding and sharing wacky personal websites!

[–] tarneo@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I have a big list of random sites I found with wiby and Marginalia search. I'll try to put it on tarneo.fr soon.

Hey, author here.

Thanks!

I just want to say that I will soon be trying to make that search engine, and I didn't forget about it. For now I am finishing my college year and preparing for french exams, but as soon as that's done I'll be sure to start actually making it; though I don't think it will be ready until a few months from now. Then we'll have to wait for sites to get indexed, and that's going to last even longer. I'll also try to host mailman on renn.es and make a few mailing lists for this project, be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed to get the announcement(s) ;-)

Wow, thank you for answering. I'm happy to hear that you're still working on it. I'll add you to my rss feed thingy :D
