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 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 is a great one. He mostly posts about old toys and videos from the '80s and '90s. I-Mockery 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.

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:

Dinosaur Dracula brings me huge comfort, I've been a fan of his for over a decade! I LOVE his Halloween content and old commercials  :ozwomp:

I am just a sucker for oldwebstyle horror enthusiast websites  :ha:

If anyone has anymore sites in the same theme as Dinosaur Dracula please link!

I do remember following Dinosaur Dracula on FB so it's neat to see they have a website!!! Bookmarked that and Retro Junk since both have had a prevalence on a social media I was into as a kid. RJ had videos watermarked all over YT so of course the name was recognizable.

One of the few I had for a while and had to check and see if it still works was The Restart Page. Want to say I saw this after watching Youtube user Michael MJD talking about it and it looked so cool. Not one I would recommend viewing on mobile, but the desktop makes the experience oh so much better.  :pc:
