Its too bad they didnt menyion the fediverse but still great resources.

On YouTube. Sigh.

How about a tl;dw for people who can read?

This is the videos community. Are you lost?

Great discussion

Certainly ironic, given the context.

But how else are you going to reach the normies?

There's a website tool hosted on neocities that's attempting to become a geocities revival.

The video is functionally an ad for the community and the associated Web building tools.

Another walled garden, right in line with Web 2.0, but with a 90s pastiche done up in HTML5. Reminds me a bit of the Vaporwave style that flared up in the mid-10s. Cute, but not groundbreaking.

Yeah as much as I prefer reading about things like this it is a bit silly to complain about it when it's literally posted in a video-oriented community.

Theres a number of websites that he goes through. Its going to be hard to describe.

Lots of neocities but not all of the links are.

Its worth watching.

Have a read

Digg does that..

Another walled garden

Not sure if you meant it this way, but Walled garden usually means 'Closed Platform', like a way to trap users. But the video is encouraging the construction of websites that can easily be self-hosted, which is the opposite of a walled garden.

https://tildeverse.org/ is another community worthwhile

Oh yeah thats an awesome one!

Also IRC still exists and is still popular for chat. Its the fediverse before that term was a thing

But the video is encouraging the construction of websites that can easily be self-hosted

It's claiming they can be self-hosted, certainly. But they're also claiming this is some kind of "Web Revival". Do you know anyone who is building neocities sites and self-hosting them, much less getting any meaningful amount of traffic on their self-hosted websites?

I really like Ye Olde Blogroll for finding indie blogs (blogroll.org)

Cloudhiker.net and Kagi's Small Web (kagi.com/smallweb) are two really cool Stumbleupon clones.

Micro.blog and bearblog.dev both have great communities too, if you're into blogging.

Do you know anyone who is building neocities sites and self-hosting them

My friends aren't the type to build websites at all, but there's plenty of self hosted simple web 2.0 sites that get decent traffic, such as Low Tech Magazine (mentioned in the video).

I did till I bought my own domain
