I really love this sort of thing. Makes me incredibly nostalgic clicking through the web before it was all apps and click bait.
This is a pretty fun resource. I collect old computers from the early 2000s and I might have to see how well this works on them.

I wish there was a kind of “RetroNet” similar to this one, with a curated list of websites that intentionally support old browsers and operating systems.

I love it. I really enjoyed using the randomised search/result and getting some interesting things to read.

What was really fun though was checking out the HTML source code: check out those capital letters and tables! Damn!

I remember having an HTML book as a kid. My mother thought I was so smart. Now I can barely slap together the trash we call HTML, CSS and JS these days. I have to copy/paste and fiddle and that's the best I can do!

I miss how simple tables were. Maybe I'm missing something of today's tech?

It threw up this for me - https://www.sonic-online.com/sonicpassion/ - thanks to the internet everyone has their own club now to feed their beliefs! The Reddit CEO (ex?) was right - the social media is indeed radicalising us through our echo chambers on the internet, and has just made it easier to do so.
