[banging pots and pans together] LINKROLL UPDATE!!! 7 new sites, it remembers your preferred theme now, and there's a comments section
I was going back through old pages to add comments / perform other code appendicitis, and figured i may as well touch these two up while i was there
wait this is such a cool way to share these, i have a just about literal boatload of discord screenshots from various servers lmao
The same goes for “the old web” — Facebook is older than half the sites on my linkroll, after all. (If i was the CEO of people-who-still-have-personal-websites-in-2023-for-some-reason i'd call it “the free web” in analogy with “the free world”, but that’s liable to get confusing and honestly i’m not sure it’s a coherent movement in the first place)
I'm not sure if that was ever the intended meaning, but I always thought "small web" referred to the size of the webpage, like the idea being that these are small websites that can be maintained by a single person as a non-job, as opposed to "the large web", consisting of content mills run by professionals and social media sites compiling the work of millions of users
With this definition, I think the term works pretty well. Either way, I prefer it over "old web", because that term is kind of geared towards those pages which persue a retro aesthetic, which is only a fraction of the "small web" or whatever you wanna call it. Plus I'm sick of Nostalgia. I say we just call it the "cooler web" and be real smug about it
NOSTALGIA DELENDA EST 😤 The Greta von Fleet-ification of the internet must not be allowed to pass
ive been using "old web" as the in-universe term for smth ive been working on but i may switch that because its a little lame to tether it to "nostalgia" and shit like that. i definitely second "cool web" as a term for this collective zone of the internet, it's just fun.
i figured that "old web" was in reference to nostalgia for "web 1.0"/geocities era, which is clearly what motivates the majority of people who make websites here to be honest

what if i want only nonserial experiments performed on me....
The only NAVI I care about is the species from James Cameron's record-breaking sci-fi epics Avatar (2009) and Avatar: The Way of Water (2022) 😤
