On Neocities
I’m not sure how to find new websites on Neocities (or anywhere else). My Neocities experience feels very calcified and unchanging now. When I first joined, I remember reading all sorts of essays by people diagnosing what was wrong with Neocities, and one common theme was that a new wave of websites would appear every year or two, totally distinct from the previous wave. The old websites would fade away into oblivion, and the new ones that take their place wouldn’t learn any lessons from them. Maybe that’s what happened to me. I haven’t faded away per se, but if a new wave has washed over me, I’ve certainly been oblivious to it. Or maybe the new wave is coalescing entirely around websites I’m scared of and avoid. Is that why I don’t ever see it?
