Deskilling in computer science has become particularly frustrating to me. All of the stuff I liked to do has become trivial by automation. Stuff that's now considered "good to know" but not essential. Most of what's left is being a quick typist and thinking algorithmically.
I don't understand the deficiency of good sites you're experiencing. I see the same unfiltered creativity today as I did when I began participating in this project. What do you miss, thricegreat?
Also there are almost no good websites left on Neocities. A few rarely good websites are just using Neocities as a mirror. They might use the comment section, but they respond email. Or they have a guestbook.
Although I don't know why you care too much about divinicide, I have a say. This Neocities comment section is just a SNS. So never expect anything. I guess the "Like" function alone makes it like that. I recently started to use it again just because of the people who never read my email. But I haven't changed my opinion. All the proper discussions happen through email.
Hello Kaa. Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately my response was too long for a few neocities comments, and I think a mask-off debrief may be worth sharing with others who are displeased with this website. Please read: https://divinicide.neocities.org/debrief
Thank you :)
