I loved Geocities. I personally had like five different pages on it, including one that acted like a virtual tour of a video game world I used to play where you would navigate through map screens and could "talk" to characters. My friends and I would also have a communal page, which worked like our own mini-reddit where we would post cool shit, and then webring to our individual sites. I also currently have an ad-free website, which I operate and create all the content for myself.

Geocities was dope AF man!

TikTok is the closest thing we have to a mainstream recreation of those days, if you curate your feed properly. It was truly the Silver Age of the internet
