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.

Really cool to see the number of subscribers here! (lemmy.ml)

So I've just checked and there's 350 subscribers which is just mad to me. Sure the sub isn't really that active, but I can tell the interest in these sorts of old style and personal websites is definitely there!

Feel like I haven't posted much for a little while and wanted to make this post to say thanks to everyone who's joined so far and posted some really cool sites.

I've kind of just made this community but not really looked into anything further like modding or asking what people actually want. So if anyone has any suggestions or even want to come on board and help out, please let me know!

Hm, I tried to subscribe, but the sidebar still says „subscription pending“. Does it have to be allowed by the mods?

Huh, I'll be honest I'm not sure. I don't see anything but I'm on mobile so maybe there's something I need to accept. Will have a look!

Thanks! I wanted to cross-post something, but I can't atm.

So, update. Apparently this is a known bug where other instances try to sub to Lemmy ml communities.

[–] llii@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Ok, thanks for the update. I will try it again later, maybe then it works.

I think its just a glitch, I've had this issue on jerboa, and jumping back out of the community and going back in, then clicking the subscribe button again seems to fix it.
