🚨 Under Construction 🚧🏗👷
Many websites on neocities are plastered with such animated “Construction” gifs; so much so it has become a running meme.
Everytime I tried making one it just never let’s me sign up . Click the button nothing happens . Apparently dœsn’t allow signups from VPNs in countries other than the US (no way in hell am connecting to US VPN servers bleecch) , but can’t say for certain
So is this some centralised stuff that will get enshittified if if works out or how does it work on a more technical side?
Static webpages are light to host. It could get enshittified but people could take their website and spend 5mins learning to host it on another place or their own machine.
Thanks, didn’t know it was static content only.
Subsidiary question, are people actually having webpages on their own PCs nowadays? I always wondered why there seemed to be so few.

Fuck no. That’s why this will get enshittified. Anyone that tells you people will just move or host it themselves live in a fucking dreamworld. That’s why geocities went away without a replacement.
A shame, it would be nice if people had a web page served from their PC…
In a secure way ofc.
Its possible with .onion services imo. But that would require a shift to the hidden-web.
Or (shameless plug) by tenfingers sharing protocol !
@sag! You actually listened to my comment and looked into it! Thank you so much for posting it! I can’t wait for more people to try it out! :)
Yea, Thanks ＼(￣▽￣)／ for telling such a cool website.
Maybe we will get lucky and someone will create a sub for it to share their sites, general tips and tricks, and whatever else they feel like sharing. :)
Here is the website that got me to bite the bullet and start learning HTML, which was so much more fun than I had imagined it to be!
