A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity 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 !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Egg2.com was my favorite flash game archive. Literally just a few hundred links to various flash games.
I would say MSN Chat/Groups. I know MSN itself is still alive and well, but those two things used to have been a way to feel a bond within a community. It was some of my earlier stages of roleplaying online with people, up until the day Microsoft decided to slap a subscription onto chat and then outright discontinuing it when that model fell apart.
userfriendly.org . One of the great early web comics.
I loved DDRFreak forums and RODiary. RIP to both of those sites.
I used to visit Filesoup's forums a fair bit, and Homestar Runner too.

Peak Myspace-era cringe but so fun
Something happened to fmh-child.org
It isn't what it used to be.
The Conversatron. The Internet was a different place back then.
Anyone remember Happy Puppy?
There used to be rotten.com, which posted extremely disturbing pictures and I don't miss that part of it. But I do miss the Rotten Library, which used to be a bastion of suppressed literature.
My old stomping grounds, the indie gaming blog GameSetWatch.
Steakandcheese.com when Kap was running it.
Searchlores.org
back when there was not much excite was very nice. If it would have gotten tabs like yahoo it would have went at least as long.
I mean, whether or not I liked Sodahead, whether or not it was good for me, and whether or not it was a good website are all questions without definitive answer, but I sure did spend my teenage years there
