Title: Nostalgia
Post by: SilkSkull on October 10, 2022, 07:07:24 pm
What websites bring you nostalgia? It could be because you used it in your youth or simply because it reminds you of ye olde web. For me it's gotta be https://covid2009.neocities.org/home.html (https://covid2009.neocities.org/home.html) it just reminds me of winters passed, time spent on the wild west called the internet with the sound of a snowstorm outside my window

Dinosaur Dracula (https://dinosaurdracula.com/) is a great one. He mostly posts about old toys and videos from the '80s and '90s. I-Mockery (http://www.i-mockery.com/) is similar, but hasn't been updated in a long time. The owner of the site had a personal tragedy in his life and sort of disappeared after, but all of the old content is still available.

And then there's the obvious one, Retro Junk (https://www.retrojunk.com/).

The Windows 95 welcome screen on the right side took me back to being a little kid and sitting through installation wizards for games like MechWarrior 2 and Torin's Passage.

Omg I love old commercials and ads, especially set out in the magazine format. I will now spend the next hour going down this rabbit hole :tongue:
