This is a long shot but does anyone remember a site with a name like "lyric23"? Iirc it was a site like neocities back in the early-mid 2000's. It wasn't literally called lyric23, but it was [something][number]. All I remember is that I would obsessively search up mermaid spells to turn myself into a mermaid kek and this site always popped up. I'm fairly certain it's not a thing anymore but I want to know if anyone here remembers it/remembers the name.

I want to have a cute side blog where I can post poetry with illustration. If not for neocities, would substack work well with that? I'm kind of looking for the same people who would use neocities, since my art could be attracting to them. The only other insane animecore-adjacent person besides all of the neocities kinnies that I'm aware of that uses substack is an actual schizo troon though

Hosting it on neocities would be best if you want to find like-minded artists, however you could also use teacake / nekoweb to host.

I'm trying to increase the variety of the nekoweb userbase. The current discord community is too annoying when someone who doesn't align with their political views starts chatting, it's getting boring. I don't want drama but I want less of an echo chamber within the website & within the discord. I valued neocities because of the variety and skillsets displayed, however when I'm scrolling through the exploration page they're all tranny kids who just discovered old web shit and they're making flashy webcore animecore xyzcore websites with no substance to them & then the moids on the site are reddit tier retards with no notable interests other than sniffing their own farts.

You can more or less post whatever you want. Most websites have some kind of gallery, a blog, shrines, an about page, a graphics hoard, and a links page, I think that's a good baseline.

I can count on one hand how many sites I've seen sperg out over "code theft", referencing what other people do is how you learn.

From my understanding, the top sites on neocities have a weird algorithm where your ratio of followed to followers determines where you end up. Like following a lot less people than follow you = high up on the list. Feds follow everyone that follows them so it like cancels out. It's very strange how high up they are now. They will up there with Sadgrl and Cinni eventually lol

No. 1919221

You can pick how to sort sites in your activity feed. By page views, by followers, by last updated… I've found that joining/looking at webring or web clique members was a better way of finding cool new sites than the activity feed, anyway.

No. 1919543

>>1919221
People on social media kind of have that mindset for some reason, so it doesn't surprise me. I don't get the logic, but I think it might be because if they see your following-followed ratio similar or in favor to your following they think your followers are mostly people who followed back to be polite, whereas if more people follow you than you follow, it seems like they followed because they like you.

The more I think about it, the dumber it is. It means that following other people - aka signing up to see things that you like - is devaluing your social currency. The more you want to view on the site and engage, the more worthless you appear. And many social media site users care about their social standing and status among other users. It also means that content creators are kind of rewarded for avoiding their audience somewhat. Just a big social status hierarchy, not based on genuine creativity and connection. I know that popularity contests happen, but they shouldn't be front and center imo.

4. Your website CAN be NSFW but NOT because of porn or lustful content. Make sure it is marked as well. Acceptable reasons a blog might be NSFW:
a. Heavy gore

It's odd she allows gore and that she hardlines being anti-abortion and being proudly LGBT. I wonder why those specifically are listed and not any other sins like adultry? Also she follows F+F so I wonder if people will start harassing them about who they feature/support.

Oh, that sucks. I'd been curious about Dreamwidth, but it's unfortunate that people aren't sticking around.

Yeah even with just 3 subs I still got comments from time to time, this one girl who used to follow me surprised me because she would still comment on my fandom posts even though we shared 0 interests. The slower pace has been great to me, though I guess people who are used to receiving 10 stimulus per second in social media would hate it (and maybe that's the reason of why it's unpopular, aside from the obvious ones).
Current sites wired people to interact mostly with just likes/retweets and directly commenting is seen as too foward, so it's a nice change of pace.

The negative with dreamwidth is they don't let you talk about troons even in your own journal. My whole journal got suspended for venting about one at my workplace.

No. 1926915

>>1926896
Wait, really? Their diversity statement claims to be open to any political view, and I've seen some non-woke leftist opinions expressed in some personal journals (also "radical feminism" is an interest tag a lot of journals have), so that's a shock to me. Did you use words like tranny by any chance or just talk about it negatively?

No. 1926946

I specifically said troon, and referred to him as male. My journal still says suspended: "This journal has been either temporarily or permanently suspended by Dreamwidth Studios for policy violation."

After contacting DW in email they told me I violated rule 1 which is "1. Upload, post, or otherwise transmit any Content that is harmful, threatening, abusive, hateful, invasive to the privacy and publicity rights of any person, or that violates any applicable local, state, national, or international law, including any regulation having the force of law;"

They didn't specify what post but since it was my most recent one and that rule talks about not posting hateful content, I can only assume it was that. The rest of my blog was personal and fandom related. It was public though so assuming you keep anything "hateful" private they probably don't screen unless someone reports.

some dreamwidth circles can get a bit gendery, but honestly it seems to be mostly an older, more reasonable crowd. i think outright venting about that sort of thing probably would cause trouble, but otherwise i’ve had some really nice, long conversations on there. i mostly use it to talk about personal / crafty stuff, though, so ymmv

Being pro-abortion and pro-"feminism" is part of the women larp they do only to access women and girls spaces, "breastfeed" babies and other gross predatory shit. Why would you pick this over a normie who at least keeps his fetishes in the private sphere. The state of feminism makes sense now.

i think there's a lot of pixel posers, not in the pixel art itself but a lot of pixel site posers. gendies are touted as THE pixel sites of neocities but don't even really make anything pixel related just steal assets from web archives and sozai sites. ive seen a lot of retards that just resize images to like 50x50 and add crank up some filters in photoshop and try to pass them off as "pixel art" but once you zoom in its obvious that they didn't draw or color it because none of it makes sense at all, lines dont connect there is 20 million colors in an image when pixel art only uses a handful and its blurry and weird and the most obvious thing is the jagged lines and blinking artifacts like the random white dots outside of the lineart. shit like this but i see it all over neocities

If your website is big enough, has a good layout and aesthetic, I doubt most will notice unless you post slurs or unhinged screeds.

Something about this person's website really bothers me. It doesn't really have original content, unless you count the graphics pages, but the vast majority of them aren't unique and you see them on other websites too. Yet, her gofundme is prominently on display, and her social media links also have her ebegging.

Her gofundme is retarded too, "buy me a PC because I'm disabled and can't work", yet the "proof" screenshots she posts that she needs a PC upgrade are… literally just driver updates. And if she's going to school for UX design, chances are her university provides computers for students to use (mines did). She ended up raising the gofundme goal to 800 dollars because "I need a GPU", which makes me think she just wants a free gaming laptop because you certainly don't need a GPU for shit like drawing and doing things on Photoshop.

Tumblr is frankly worse than neocities when it comes to gendies. GC women constantly get banned on tumblr. Nobody will do or say anything to you on neocities, hell, there's out and proud nazis, racists and /pol/ trad christcucks that say and do whatever they want. Neocities doesn't even have rules besides don't break USA law so you're good. Never saw anyone get banned for their politics on neocities.
As for the hate, that's nonexistent too, female gendies suffer too much from female socialization and anxiety to actually leave you hate personally and male troons are too busy jerking off and reviewing obscure linux distros to care about your website and do anything about it. The worst that might happen is that some tif might make a "I came across another disgusting terf" post once in a while on their profile while not actually namedropping you. You might get gendie followers but don't let that scare you off from posting, they usually just follow because they think your site looks pretty and read exactly 0 words past the index.html.

This is the worst that's happened to me on Neocities. My experience on Tumblr is getting concern trolled for reblogging from certain users or having my username in the notes of certain posts, gendies will make blocklists and "keep tabs on" on "cryptoterfs" (read: women who post basic feminism/LGB stuff but don't kiss TIMs asses), not being able to interact in fandons because everyone is hyper-aware of "dogwhistles", etc etc. Even when I was a libfem Tumblr was stressful to be on because basic views I had like being porn-critical was suspicious. On Neocities? None of that has happened to me. No negative emails, no guestbook comments, even the gendies who follow me don't interact besides linking to my site and liking status updates. The GC women I knew who got shit on Neocities actively fanned the flames by interacting with and arguing gendies instead of not following them. I'm surprised more cryptos/GCs/non-libfems don't use the personal web instead of still wading through Tumblr/Twitter/Instagram/Facebook and dodging getting banned.

From what I've combed through it seems you'd need to make a script to block people without their profile open because it's a post request that requires some sort of a site token that can probably be obtained by opening the site itself, I haven't found any being shared online so maybe I'll make something at a later date.

Sometimes I find myself wanting to befriend random webmasters but I feel like it might be presumptuous to email them, so I dont. I think a lot of people are just shy.

I think most people would be flattered to receive such an email. I would be! And if they aren't, there is no harm done. If someone were offended by an anon reaching out to them that would be very strange behaviour.

Do it. The best messages and conversations I've gotten were from people emailing me out of the blue or striking up a conversation. It gave me hope that not everyone online is a doomscroller.

This is how it was for me. I went in with no expectations because I wanted a place to info dump but opened up a channel of communication and I ended up making a bunch of friends.

Why do all tranny tims on neocities and nekoweb type like this? "wow!!! i thinkkkk,,,,, its so cuteee shsjsk :3" and it's some 42 year old man kek. They try so fucking hard, it's retarded. I haven't typed like that since I was 14.

They're autogynephiles who pretend to be teenage girls for their fetish. Their websites also never have any content worth looking at, just links to social media, porn, or talking about their epic translesbian (translation: jailhouse gay) polycule.

I can confirm that lexi is not only using tracker scripts, but is now making alt accounts larping as women for nefarious reasons. This was confirmed by someone in his friend group. Unfortunately, I can’t give more information, or provide screenshots for obvious reasons. You can believe me or choose not to. Either way, there’s no harm in protecting yourself. Be careful what you click on and download a browser ext to block trackers if you haven’t already.

I'm gonna sound like the biggest retard in the world for this, but what exactly is a tracker script? How much can info can he get from me?

Some leads to his alts would be helpful if possible, but I'm assuming you may be a degree of separation from him and don't want to out yourself. And here I thought this was a dime-a-dozen programming sperg.

Google is free but it basically tracks your info and activity when viewing a site. It tracks which pages you look at, how long you look at them, your location/IP, the device you viewed it on, etc, it's what advertising companies use. Notably one thing is it grabs a referral link of where you found the site, I recommend against clicking any links to his site shared in this thread or anywhere else on LC because I don't trust what he'd do with the info.

Sorry nona, it's just that Google explanations are so convoluted and I just wanted a short and sweet answer. Thanks for explaining it to me. Thankfully, there aren't any links to his website posted on here. I just looked up his name + 'neocities' on Google and entered his site from there. That's creepy as fuck though, what would he want with all this info anyway? Everyday I hate trannies more and more.

Apologies for being a retard but is there a way to make your site private on neocities? I don't want random people looking at it unless I specifically give them the link because I'm thinking of storing private stuff.

Probably just narrow down what woman is looking at his page and be a creep to her. I just looked at his page (w/ a VPN), his latest blog talks about still living with his mom. I feel sorry for her. Her 23 year old skirt-go-spinny troon of a son mooches off her while bothering women online all day.

No, but you can code offline and view the .html files locally.

If it's private, then don't publish it? But if you really want a select few people to have access, then use literally any other hosting service and password protect the pages.

I honestly just use the Neocities editor since I don't really have a problem refreshing the page a billion times kek

yeah but that's been ongoing and it was about their book lending program, not about shutting down the site.

no updates on all that since last year. why is anon asking if it will be shut down now?

Does anyone else wish they made a Neocities sooner? Not only am I curious about how the community was pre-2020s but my experience making a personal site and connecting with others via guestbook and emails is so much cozier and I haven't gotten into any drama unlike Tumblr. I see this thread post about "Neocities is full of gendies" but I've found a good amount of normal adult women that don't post pronoun stuff everything.

They do not need money. The foundation that hosts the site currently is holding more than 100 million dollars for Brewster Kahle (founder)
Hopefully the lawsuit is won

I wonder how many farmers started making sites on neocities because of this thread.
