It's kind of weird reading about yesterweb falling apart because I never really followed it but seeing how widespread it is across neocities made me think it would be a lasting thing kind of...
Reading the report on what happened behind the scenes and the forum posts was pretty weird. As an outsider I always saw them as sort of a community of creative/crafty neighbours. I didn't know the community got that big or that they had so many revolutionary plans... I guess it's for the best that it ended, moderating a community that large sounds like a huge problem.
Yeah the manifesto sadgrl made a while back was what inspired me and a bunch of other people to make a website and later join the discord but basically alot of us were lurkers and it got wayyyy too big. Glad it occurred but I respect the mods decisions for sure
Same, it caught on quickly around here. i heard their Discord shut down last month so that was the only bad sign i knew of until now... lol

The movement was doomed to failure.
