Recently I landed on a neocities site and was more excited about a search result sending me to neocities than I was about finding what I was looking for. <a href="https://neocities.org/" rel="nofollow">https://neocities.org/</a>
Oddly important because it cutely shows what has changed. The underlying assumption of the early internet was users wanted any information at all just for the novelty of it, and didn't care what it was. I even clicked on something that said, "under construction, come back later!" thinking there might be something other than that message behind it.
Now it's about competing for attention with everything else.<p>Ichi.city reminds me of what a Christopher Alexander-like <i>a place to put information</i> might look like, and makes me wonder what other Alexanderian places we might still want.
Hilarious. He created a homepage for his password: <a href="https://zeeslag.ichi.city/mypassword.html" rel="nofollow">https://zeeslag.ichi.city/mypassword.html</a>
Another project in this vein is the Tildeverse, a group of pubnix servers that provide web/gopher/gemini hosting, preinstalled utilities (e.g. an IRC client, development toolchains, common $EDITORs), and services (mail hosting, BBSes, etc).<p>Anything in your ~/public_html dir gets hosted in a subdir of your tilde with your UNIX username, e.g. /~seirdy/.<p>Website: <a href="https://tildeverse.org/" rel="nofollow">https://tildeverse.org/</a>
Very nice, I like the concept how easy it is to get things up and running.<p>The obvious problems I thought about yesterday when I first saw this was spam and at some point moderation.
I looked the homepages this morning and sure enough, someone created hundreds of sites with 8 random letters.
I guess you could also create a script to update your site every X seconds to always be on the frontpage to promote a crypto or something more nefarious.<p>Anyways, I'll still keep updating my own site from time to time for fun, thanks for sharing this.
This is really simple to use. I also like how the homepages section will automatically update with the site's title and description once you save<p><a href="https://ichi.city/homepages" rel="nofollow">https://ichi.city/homepages</a>
I wish more people knew how easy it is to set up a simple webpage. There is no need to pay for something like Squarespace. This, along with GitHub/GitLab make for great, free ways for people to learn some basic HTML.
these little banners are looking so nostalgic these days: <a href="https://ichi.city/banner.png" rel="nofollow">https://ichi.city/banner.png</a>
