For the small web/weird web

The small web and weird web are overlapping uses of the Worldwide Web that harkens back to Web 1.0: personally-owned and non-corporate domains, text-based, and interlinked with federation or webrings.

Civility is aggressively enforced: do not be rude, troll-y, flame-bait-y, etc. If someone else is, please report, block as necessary, and move on.

Comments that cannot reasonably lead to discussion or which have no analysis (“first!”, “lol”, [string of emojis]) will be deleted. Please do not post them.

In the 80s, everyone probably loved MS-DOS, but it was clear it needed an upgrade. Let's have a look at how Microsoft and IBM tackled the issue; is their new OS/2 the answer to all of their problems, or is it too good to be true?

Remember all the personal sites in HTML people used to have on places like geocities or neocities? There's a bit of an online movement to go back to that kind of site instead of everything being on some big centrally-owned website.

Neoskitties is that, in the style of r/pokemedia: posting what people would have on their equivalent to neocities in the Pokémon universe. Figured Pokémon Lemmy might appreciate.
