I love the old simple powerful websites at companies I've worked for. It's when they add a bunch of whitespace and a chatbot that they really start to go to hell.

Yeah nah, this is old late 00s web sites that's have to load whenever you change something.

Has Real Ultimate Power actually changed at all/added new content? I was reading that in elementary.

[–] brandocorp@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago

I see YouTube videos linked, and I remember being on this site before YouTube existed. I don't think it has changed all that much, though.

[–] ace_garp@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Nope, exact same html.

jwz.org/blog, for obvious reasons.

Sites that have old forums. There aren't many anymore, but ones I've seen that have been very helpful of late include car sites, a timeshare forum, and the Fantasy Grounds forum (my virtual tabletop of choice).

I'm sure there are others out there, but it's definitely more rare than it used to be. Is Something Awful still around?
