its a very interesting, nice, and awesome experience, at least for myself n.n i got very bored of social media and honestly its toxic now :c so i decided to only make a website and maybe sometimes use forums or discussion sites (like lemmy), fortunately i made it all using html and css :3 it was so easy and i liked it. you should do that too c: do you know anyone who has a personal website??

I used to have one WAY back in the day. It was fun to play around with the HTML stylings, though things like frames did NOT age well, lol.

I miss the old Internet where you could easily find information, fan sites, etc. Now it's all crappy social media and shit blogs where you have to scroll through a bunch of garbage before you find out that the person doesn't really know what they're talking about anyway.

I was raw-doggin html back in 1995, I think my hand-crafted bad emo poetry site might be floating around somewhere to this day

I run a couple sites and still use Notepad as my editor for the non-CGI parts.

The first website I had was built from scratch. i.e HTML back in the 90s. It wasnt very sophisticated but it was mine.

Recently Ive been playing around with wordpress again thinking about making a couple blogs with it. One that is exclusively about science and tutoring and the other chronicaling my minecraft mod pack's development.

I built and maintained a BBS, with my 2400 bps modem.

I didn't but you made me miss my good old 56k modem, good old days.

You might be interested in Neocities. It's a hosting platform for personal websites and also includes a directory so you can find other people's.

Not a personal website, but I’m currently working on my portfolio site for when it’s time to find a job. I’m in school for software development. I’ve made websites using Wordpress templates and very basic html/css long before but now I’m actually trying to code mine from scratch with html/css/js now that I’ve learned enough in school. It is really fun, especially when you find cool tricks and they work!
