🚨 Under Construction 🚧🏗👷
Many websites on neocities are plastered with such animated "Construction" gifs; so much so it has become a running meme.
Neocities is so cool, I really wanna try making sites with a friend, but I need to decide what to call it to make an account lol
The pizza gymnasium
Is that where you exercise your pizza, or where you exercise while eating pizza, or just a pizza themed gymnasium?
Yes
I had a geocities
How's your back pain?
I keep limber by jumping to conclusions
We did a geocities site for a group project in English class. We were working together on it over Yahoo Messenger. We got an A on it.
Do you happen to still remember the url?
@sag! You actually listened to my comment and looked into it! Thank you so much for posting it! I can't wait for more people to try it out! :)
Yea, Thanks ＼(￣▽￣)／ for telling such a cool website.
Maybe we will get lucky and someone will create a sub for it to share their sites, general tips and tricks, and whatever else they feel like sharing. :)
Here is the website that got me to bite the bullet and start learning HTML, which was so much more fun than I had imagined it to be!

Why not you create it. I am already mod on so many communities. I don't want to get called powermods.
Also one of the great example of neocities website is : https://wuzzy.neocities.org/
So is this some centralised stuff that will get enshittified if if works out or how does it work on a more technical side?
Static webpages are light to host. It could get enshittified but people could take their website and spend 5mins learning to host it on another place or their own machine.
Thanks, didn't know it was static content only.
Subsidiary question, are people actually having webpages on their own PCs nowadays? I always wondered why there seemed to be so few.

Fuck no. That's why this will get enshittified. Anyone that tells you people will just move or host it themselves live in a fucking dreamworld. That's why geocities went away without a replacement.
A shame, it would be nice if people had a web page served from their PC...
In a secure way ofc.
Its possible with .onion services imo. But that would require a shift to the hidden-web.
will get enshittified
It will not. It's actually for community. It is a GeoCities(Dead) replacement a Old Website hoster.
how does it work on a more technical side?
It's for simple people. You got the idea wrong. I think you should use codeberg.page or github.io.
I doubt it would get big enough to be worth enshittifying, but it absolutely could happen.
I think you're being too dramatical
I was just curious about how it's supposed to function :-)
Ah! It happens. Sorry if I was mean to you.
Ha ha no worries 😊
Just extremely simple & limited, like the original garbage that was Geocities.
Everytime I tried making one it just never let's me sign up . Click the button nothing happens . Apparently dœsn't allow signups from VPNs in countries other than the US (no way in hell am connecting to US VPN servers bleecch) , but can't say for certain
