Not super niche:
I still use this site almost every day.
Absolutely. I must use it like 5 times a day.
I was going to say https://apatheticagnostic.org/ but some unapathetic asshole updated it.
https://epguides.com/ is what I’ve been using for about that long to get a list of episodes that are available for various shows.
Top site, the Ian Knot must have already saved me cumulative hours of shoelace tying time.
No longer online, but if you like this you should also check out the official Galaxy Quest “fan” site: https://web.archive.org/web/20000819162953/http://www.galaxyquest.com/galaxyquest/
Who is still paying the hosting fees for this?
Mark and Sarah King are the web admins and claim to have been designated to stay behind on the away mission to continue to spread their message. Although there’s still some contention around them from ex members that left before they all put on the white suits, laced up their Nikes, and drank the kool aid.
I vaguely remember a documentary where they were interviewed but can’t recall many specifics. There was also a sub reddit that (supposed) ex-members used to post in and many of them had a bone to pick with Mark and Sarah King about some of their claims.
I guess when you’re all in on crazy… I got nothing to finish that with.
My local movie theaters website from the days of early websites. http://www.goetzskyvu.com/GOETZ_THEATRE/GOETZ_SHOW_&_TIMES.html
The webshop (I guess) at https://arngren.net/ has had the same avantgarde layout forever. They used to specialise in flying cars.
How did it load back in the day? It struggles to load now
I’m getting a Forbidden on that page.
Edit: nvm. Page was blocking Mullvad.
So I’m going to toot my own horn here lmao but personally? Mine lol. Sure, technically doesn’t precisely fit the bill for 20 years, given it’s changed domains, content and the such while I was ironing out my interests in life and future expectations.
But I’ve had variations of the site for different projects, purposes, employment needs, and more recently the whole starting my own organization thing lol. All in all however, I’d compare it to those 3 generation soups that are a big selling point in family shops throughout the Asiatic, sure nothing of the original exists per se, but the spirit is there.
I do have such a soft spot for the old ascii and plaintext site design, I’ve never really left the scheme since I first learned html. To me, the more basic a site has made it’s web design the more likely I am to trust it. Something about corporate web design just never sits right with me.
Are you gonna post it?
About bicycle maintenance.
Legendary fella in bike circles. I was sad when he died.
Speaking of bikes, https://www.bikeforums.net/ is still alive and pretty much unchanged. I wonder if the Helmet Wars are still being waged. LOL, yep.
I found that a few minutes ago on wiby.me, was surprised his family was maintaining his site for so long and had an active fb page for it
Oh, I know the answer to this one: superbad.com (suitable for work).
Joe Merrick, fucking legend, has been running this Pokémon database website for at least 15+ years. Basically the same layout, low/no ads, quality info for free. Got a Pokémon-related question? Serebii’s got the answer. Love it 💚
Tough math problems meant to be solved by programming a solution. Nothing has taught me to optimize as well as this site.
