A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Juicy cerebellum was fun. At least, i think i remember it being fun.
notbencejon.com
It was a blog written by a young guy who had an amazing ability to put his struggles into words. I was an angry/sad teenager at the time and reading his blog made me feel like I wasn't the only one. I hope he's out there and doing ok. He loved the band Sloan and his family.
I've tried a few times to find a trace of his blog, and no such luck.
The original surreal Direct Debit website. tbf it's on archive.org although not completely intact but "no trace of" isn't entirely accurate (although I suspect that's true of most 1990s websites)
Well I was about 14
I remember sexhungryjoes.com
Probably killed every computer we had back then with viruses

Much less important than some of these, but there was a British history teacher, Jonathan Pagel, who made some "history raps" for his class back around 1995 and 1996. His website went down many years ago, but the URL was still embedded in a comment in one of the files that I had, and I dug them up with archive.org's Wayback Machine.
They were released under the GNU FDL, so I can repost them:
- consumption junction (whats your dysfunction?). it was a wild site.
There was an alternative search eingine to altavista, where you searched for cracked programs etc. I think it was attilavista or something like it.
altavista - best pre-Google search engine. It would probably be the best post-Google-enshittification search engine today too.

The world's first webpage is still up.
https://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html
Looks a lot like a typical gopher node (or, today, gemini node). Hierarchical tree, link, brief description attached to each link.

Netscape, I guess
Fry's Electronics, too, tho technically the memorial site is still up
thecreepingeyemorgue.com
That site was later renamed to the more familiar rotten.com, which also apparently no longer exists.
There was a fan site dedicated to Shirley Manson and Billy Joe Armstrong. It wasn't Green Day and Garbage it was just them Im a huge Garbage fan and at the time it was one of the coolest things to stumble upon at 12 years old. Super niche and clearly just someone who was obsessed. Loved that site. No idea how i found it lol
My first website on "Spree.net". Hahaha.
I remember a blog from some people in the US called chickenlegs I think
