It's like a giant canvas of 250x250 tiles. To move around, you click and drag up, down, left and right. You can also zoom in and out via scrolling (scroll wheel or touchpad gestures).

What do you think?

2 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/10 09:14

Is it just personal websites? Neat.
I was pleasantly surprised to find on one of the sites an image of a dog smoking: https://gator.nekoweb.org/assets/by%20who/pagedolls/pipedog.png

3 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/10 11:40

I don't think a lot of the kids making these sites sites realize that they would actually be impossible to load on any PC from whatever year they think they're representing.

4 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/10 11:44

At least they don't have to know the pain of Internet Explorer. Cross-browser compatibility was a nightmare in that era.

5 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/10 13:53

Its not really about retro aesthetics. Its mostly about do-it-yourself websites.

【3:43】 Site for sharing niche websites without javascript

■ ▲ ▼

1 Name: nanachi!vf0QKpPiDo : 2025/10/12 01:38

Hey w2ch, I wrote a php script for sharing sites. It uses a sqlite database. Basically, it's a big list with subcategories for different kinds of sites. To add a site, it has to not be behind Cloudflare or anubis, and must not require Javascript to access any feature. Also, imageboards are banned because weirdos are always creating new imageboard sites and then taking them down for no reason. (There's two people who LOVE doing this for some reason and have been doing it for years, but I won't name them because they need to get a life) Also Tor hidden services are banned just cause I wanna avoid the stigma. However I might revise that.
You can also add stuff that isn't http, like xmpp MUC rooms, irc, doom servers or anything that has a URI.
My motivation for making this was that I felt like there's hardly any resource for cool Web 1.0/2.0 esque websites that you can comfortably browse from a non-Firefox/Chrome browser. And also, when you setup one of these sites, it's hard to get traffic without shilling everywhere and being a nusiance.
Anyhow, is this even a good idea? I added a captcha, so it's not likely that it'll be botted, but I feel like people might not take it seriously. I was thinking about advertising it on 4chan /g/, but they're a bunch of shitheads who would probably just miss the point and call it nostalgia pandering or something.
Please tell me what you guys think. Also, apropos of nothing, I was gonna call it SiteShare but I think that name sucks so feel free to reccomend better ones.

Blasta looks interesting.

40 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/05 11:54

I wouldn't advertise it on 4chan/g/ The only chan I would post it on is lainchan if anything, but at the end of the day this sounds like a really good idea. Just because Cloudflare and Javascript has ruined parts of the internet for various reasons ( which I won't get into right now ) but I think that this cool be a good tool and a way for people with their own websites to post them so others can find it easier.

【5:8】 Hadaka izakaya concept

■ ▲ ▼

1 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/06 09:15

I am planning to start my own izakaya in Shinjuku where the staff will berate customers with Hokuto no Ken style insults, and also preferably be naked, although I'm not sure about the laws around that. Perhaps I can get Yakuza backing if they find the idea amusing enough.
Am I insane to think this idea will work?

4 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/07 00:20

>>1
Yes you are insane to think working with the Yakuza wouldn't backfire in at least some way. People might not trust the place and there might be a crackdown on illegal organizations or something that might jeopardize your freedom, not to mention that the Yakuza is a mob that might kill you if you screw something up (pretty much an assumption I've made from movies, but still a good rule of thumb).

5 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/07 04:01

I am planning to start my own izakaya in Shinjuku where nobody is allowed in except me.

Yes, but you wouldn't be the only one. You might have to time travel back a few decades, though.

【6:18】 Suggestion: World2ch takes the opportunity in the Venenzuela invasion

1 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/03 13:54

Long story short, it seems that the U.S. has bombed Venenzuela and taken their president captive, but not occupied any part of the country.
Perhaps we could strike while the iron is hot, and install ourselves as the new leaders of the nation as a power vacuum is eminent. Thoughts?

progress has been slow, but there has been clear improvement, and I don't see it stopping
it might even get faster since I'm not banging my head against everything anymore

【8:1】 I really hope it snows

■ ▲ ▼

1 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/02 22:29

It only snows about once every 2 years here if you're lucky, it would really be a waste of a winter if it doesn't snow at all.

Also I should probably ask this here, I notice in a lot of movies that are set in the northern U.S that snowball fights are not an act of fun but are done by bullies and it's not a nice thing.
I guess this is because snow happens for such a long time there that it isn't really fun if you live around it for so long, and so it just becomes more of a actual fight thing. However in places
where it rarely ever snows it's like a privilege to have snowball fights since you won't get another chance to do one in several years most likely.

【10:19】 Make a video social media?

■ ▲ ▼

1 Name: Nameless : 2025/12/10 12:53

I've been thinking about this for a while. I kind of want to make a video-based social media, not unlike Youtube. Youtube's increasing shittiness reminded me I wanted to do this again. I especially don't like how Youtube's become less and less social. I miss the days of groups and Youtube Live
I want to take cues from SomethingAwful. The site would be free to browse, albeit with ads, but for a one-time fee, you can set up an account and have access to a lot more than just browsing.
The question is: Should I bother? Would any of you even try to use it, or do you think it'll die out with no one using it or even checking it out?
Feedback and ideas also welcome.

15 Name: Nameless : 2025/12/27 13:17

>>14
Ah, I didn't get that. Whoops. Well, that's just the Fediverse at that point? See protocols like ActivityPub (basically SMTP over HTTP but JSON and New.) It's the shit that lets the federated reddit clone also vomit things onto the federated twitter clone.
Honestly just write your own API, the standardized ones are very shit.

16 Name: Nameless : 2025/12/27 16:39

>>15
Hmm... Alright. I'll still make a couple of custom built adapters for certain sites so that I still have like 4-5 sites that have built in support without them adopting my API(YouTube is the obvious first one.)

Man, I hate pointing out that the chasing of money caused the problem. It's so blindingly obvious, but also I want to run my own partnership program too, which kind of goes against what I just said.
I think what I want is incredibly contradictory. A SOCIAL media platform that also has a couple of handpicked people who are making cool shit that get paid for it because they're original.
Maybe I should just do the art website first instead. That's more straightforward...

17 Name: Nameless : 2025/12/27 18:24

>>15
Honestly, I don't know if it's worth building an API from scratch for a site like this.

The real solution to checking multiple sites regularly is just getting into the habit.
And the only way to do that is to rethink how you use the web.

18 Name: Nameless : 2025/12/27 18:35

>>16
I understand what you mean, but for a social media platform, I don’t think a partnership system is a good idea..

In fact, I don’t think any of the sites we call social media are actually social media.
Most of them aren’t really usable for socializing, which is supposed to be their basic purpose.
They feel more like message boards or community sites that have been "improved" in the wrong way.

19 Name: Nameless : 2026/01/01 12:33

>>18
Whilst I do agree that social media isn't really social media anymore, we're talking the big sites and the big players here such as facebook. I don't agree that it isn't useable for socializing completely. If you're ballsy enough to just add random people within your area and start messaging people out of the blue I suppose something could come out of that, or I suppose you could also join a group of some sort , something local. With this mindset though something could come out of anything, even here
