Oh boy 5 AM!!! Time for a photo update along with a BIG bump in sticker count AND a couple little additions too. Getting ready to put all my shit in boxes but I'm gonna try to carve two final Tablings before my big move. Also onio's YouTube video is doing so well that Neocities might be going viral as we speak, idk we will see........

Also the Free Stickers are now on hold until March 20th, which is when I should be done moving. We got a ton of new US states on the map before I packed up my mailing stuff though!

y'know if youre getting real into woodcarving a dremel goes a long way. its not as fun as the knife, but its great for adding finer details and sanding, especially hardwoods

I do have a Dremel actually! I just don't usually have a great place to use it outside so I don't fill my apartment with sawdust since I'm currently somewhere pretty busy. Should be easier to find a place to use it where I'm headed though, and thank you!!

oh my god, the fact that you did this -- not the hair alone, the whole page, you made creatures of real people -- is incredible. the tablings are adorable, and they have so much personality!

i predict an uptick in people using pre-made layouts with almost no changes other than color. maybe they'll leave after they discover websites aren't inconvenient, but we might, for a short time, be overwhelmed with people expecting convenience. i shudder at the thought

i also feel like this is bad for a reason that is harder to articulate and maybe makes me sound like a pretentious dick....Neocities and other site hosts are already really easy to find, actually, if you know what you're looking for. people who wanted to find it, would. now, though, it's more visible people who didn't know or care what they were missing, it's like giving Myspace to someone used to Tiktok or Instagram

I think I have some faith in people. Tbf I almost did the whole template route and almost gave up on coding a few times. The only reason I kept going is because I was procrastinating from doing my illustration stuff…

i mean no matter how or why people arrive here, more people choosing the indie web instead of the big social medias is a good thing. but i dont know if neocities growing bigger is a good thing in itself? i think we're gonna need to remind ourselves to not focus too much on numbers or followers and remember why we started our sites in the 1st place before we end up w the same behavior we're trying to escape from here

shift in the zeitgeist. its gonna be a shock at first. a good thing for the zeitgeist overall. anything away from hyper consumption can only be good. but not really good for the niche. gym in January. not an issue for me i find sites from of sites i already like.

you guys are right. no matter where people are coming from, if they make something good, that's what matters. i just don't have faith in people, not even myself. those kinds of numbers can be addicting

I mean, from what I know, Onio (onio.club) did make a youtube video about the indie web but they've been on here for 3 years now. I definitely got an uptick on my stats + guestbook from his video but people have been really nice! TBH I don't think people will learn how to code en masse from this

I think it could be a good thing, but at the same time I'm afraid of the number of empty sites we'll get from ppl who will only join to follow their favorite creators, which is not the end of the world by itself but oof x__X

Yeah on second thought it's dawning on me how much of an impact this might make, good or bad. God I hope it's just a boom-and-bust and then everything stays the same

not for nothin the 1gb limit on free accounts (of which i use under 1% pfff [not counting the mp3s/mp4s i host off filegarden]) - as for it all i'll just neutrally observe over time really

it'll peak hard then plateau after a while ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i agree with brach, hoping moreso the existing infrastructure can handle any peak in traffic then changes in site culture and so on. this isnt really a "social media" like most others are and that can be initally offputting to many. still, it's worth downloading your sites/mounting them on a drive as a backup just in case

@brachy @underwhite i wing it in the site editor (i actually use Nekoweb) for that fresh, improvised, desperate vibe, but then once i'm proud of the changes i've made, i'll save a copy to my drive. save your important shit, please, if you haven't already

Way I see it, it's the same as anything that gets really popular. It's a big craze, everyone wants in. After a while, most will give up. This is not strange. There will be a few that remain, whose interests are truly peaked. Those are the ones that become the next generation. Its the same with art, music, anything really. There's that one in a hundred, always been like that.

where's the linkkkkk let's be miserable together
The button wall is from the one and only dabric, they're marked as "Dead" here: https://dabric.xyz/links/
the worst thing is when someone completely erases their site!!! makes me sad!!
Literally me with a few favorite artists who left Neocities and vanished without explanation :'] I wish there was a way to keep on following them out there...
i miss sugarforbrains :(
Aw man, I didn't know sugarforbrains left. :(
well that's funny cause on my site rewrite i'm gonna have a graveyard section for buttons LOL. rest in peace theprophat
@keysklubhouse here's out there somewhere o7
It makes me so sad when they delete the whole site, just because they aren't updating anymore doesn't mean they should let all their hard work disapear like that >:(
oh wow that's me, I've actually been wondering if keeping dead sites would be appropriate... it was their choice to take it down, and i kinda wanna respect that. let them live in peace, going into the next chapter of their life
that's why projects like the wayback machine are awesome. We should archive shit
idk, i think it's worse when someone's site is still up but the way they left things makes me think they died
I mean it's a possibility but often people just move on with their lifes
