Neocities.org
Kiiiiiiiind of wanna move to another hosting thing so I can have subdomains for all my various alter-egos and projects, but I wonder how much I'd be losing by breaking away from Neocities? Have you ever considered moving to different hosting? What do you think?
dont know if you saw my response to your comment on my entry last night but i wanted to thank you for your kind words. the support ive gotten for my journal has been so incredible. unfortunately when i went to like the comment i accidentally hit delete. damn touch screens. but i did read it and i appreciate it so much.

I've been meaning to create a shrine to my favourite old school websites forever, but it's such a big job idk where to start. I have folders and folders of old domains, webrings, UBBs. I wanna write a whole article about the force that was narcissistic.org. How the fuck do I even start that sort of thing? agh.

i host my site on leprd.space and it's sooooo much better to host somewhere other than neocities, after switching over i can do a whole ton of stuff that just wouldn't be feasible on neocities. i like the community here though so i simply just have my neocities site act as a spash page that links to my actual site hosted elsewhere
I love the Neocities community a lot which is why I made a page here. However, I've personally had my own hosting under Interserver for 2 years so that's my personal recommendation! There's plenty of other good ones though. I think violet has a cute idea in having a neocities site that acts as a splash page
Neocities is mostly focused on personal websites and minor projects. It's best to switch if you want to do more with your site
The best thing about neocities as a host is reliability, its so basic that it just cant break. Almost every other platform Iv used has died after months or years. That and the feedback loop of being inspired by other sites and getting exposure for yours is fun. Other hosts can certainly do more complex things, but there can be a beauty in limitations too.
