> The internet was weirder back then — full of quirky ideas, personal pages, custom blogs, and far more viable platforms to build on than we have on the streamlined web of today. The Internet is not the Web, also what platforms? Sure besides Geocities, many ISP's gave a few MBs for personal html files but for the most part you didn't had your own URL, now you can have that for a few pennies a month. But we're not playing web pages game anymore, it's interactivity bit times otherwise we feel bored without infinite scroll and even a regular forum doesn't cut it anymore (no one wants no register for yet another one). > In the last two decades, custom stylesheets have become a dying breed. I'm not so sure about it, at least not for the regular personal pages, you just don't find those as often with "the search engine". Try https://wiby.me/ https://wiby.me/ to get a feel for it. Maybe we need to resurrect the gopher protocol and make the search unbiased again, hell yeah, Make the Search Great Again!
