I mean it’s not good but https://jesus-is-savior.com/ is just rabbit hole upon rabbit hole. CW: gore, most forms of bigotry
Holy fuck that is unhinged. Side note, who is behind that site, and why do they have so many ads for Alex Jones? Kind of liking how they all link to the infowars domain, which is going to be owned by someone else soon hopefully though.
I actually had seen one page from this site because it talks about how a niche religion is WITCHCRAFT and SATANIC, but that front page is a work of art.
The amount of insane content on that site is astounding. It was kinda nice how fast the plain HTML pages loaded though.
I have one I know for a fact y’all don’t know about, but if I told you I’d probably almost certainly out myself on that site. So, no, sorry, not telling.
Anyone remember technorati? What about the nethernet? Ah that brings me back…

Spent way too long solving a sliding puzzle. Love the pop up “Puzzle solved!” at the end.
A comic, made with photos of posed bendy figurines. Was very influential in certain circles (like other, more obscure websites I won’t name). Still up, but hasn’t been updated in 20 years.
Shit, as long as I’m posting websites from the 1900’s that are still up, there’s also Zombo.com.
websites from the 1900s
how dare you
All hail Zombo.com
lots of weird sites that exist that probably only their creator visit
This site has probably the best disclaimer I’ve ever seen at the bottom of the page.
And even more You must understand, that using a boat may be dangerous: -The boat may fall over. -You may fall out of the boat. -The boat may hit a rock. -Your shoes may get wet. -The boat may get filled with water. -The boat may sink. -Another boat may hit Your boat. -The boat may drift a long distance away. -You may get lost with the boat. -When rowing, You may get blisters in Your hands and butt. -If You get into water, You may drown or get hypothermia. -Killer sharks may attack You. -Anything else may happen

If you want to see what various license plates look like from all of North America (as well as what they looked like in the past), there is a website that with a short URL. Strangely enough, the website never gone to https. The link is http://www.15q.net/
I guess https isn’t strictly necessary if you’re not handling user input.
There’s still an argument to be made that https prevents malicious code from being injected in transit.

Nope, I saw a video about the rarest bread clip and it talked about that site
The temple of the screaming electron
Not obscure enough, cool site though! Used to post there and amateurpyro, mtbs3d and a few others
Actually a useful site and from my friend’s company! stremecoder.com
It’s a graphical node-based platform to write and learn python
There used to be a site in the 90s that was my go to for… anime research purposes, yeah. Vham.com.br if memory serves (Viciados em Hentai, Anime e Mangá), it has probably been offline for more than 17 years now.
PLASTERof PAradISe. It was one of the first websites I came across accidentally back in about 1995, I just checked and it still exists (on Geocities!) It’s a fetish site with links to every instance of movies, shows, books etc. with people wearing full body, arm and leg casts. I remember it even had episodes of the Simpsons where casts were depicted. “To each his own”, I guess!
https://www.lmfdb.org/ for people deep into analytic number theory rabbit hole.
A Girls World.
Back in the 2000s, a place for young girls. Articles, recipes, I think games? I edited articles for a bit. I use to be able to directly connect where I’d been online to there, in the sense of, “banner on website suggested this website and talked to people there which lead to this and then that and now to here” but my memory is bad now so I can’t.
If it still exists I doubt it’s anything like the original.
