I really enjoyed Cracked in its internet heyday. It was at times funny and others poignant. Somewhere I would have wanted to publish. Technically it still exists... but it is not the same.

The Dark Side of the Net and Goth Girl of the Week. There use to be a goth dating site but I can't remember the name. It doesn't matter I suppose. I will be dead soon any way.

www.ebaumsworld.com its still around but its not the same.

Also www.thingsididlastnight.com - it just said YOUR MOM in huge letters. Thats it. No ads, no images, nothing. Just YOUR MOM

Also www.mostannoyingwebpage.com (I think). Just an endless stream of popup messages with no way out

Kuro5hin (pronounced "corrosion").

It started with a lot of people who disliked Slashdot. Kinda like Lemmy is full of a lot of people who dislike Reddit. It had a broader subject matter than Slashdot, though. You might end up reading about someone's experience of being fully immersed in a BDSM relationship where all windows were covered, all clocks were removed, and they spend the entire day in service to their master until a safeword is called. (IIRC, that went on for something like 6 months, but when they came out, the person thought it was closer to 4).

Or it might just be about how badly WEP on WiFi broke this week. There was a lot of that at the time.

There were probably three waves of users. I was around for the first; my UID is around 2,700. Second started around UID 30,000 and I think it was also mostly Slashdot refugees. Third was around UID 50,000 and it really went downhill with that one.

Did Ru5ty ever add the extra functionality he collected all those donations for?

I got there right after the facelift in the early oughts, when they switched to vBulletin.

Shortly before the last shutdown, I cloned the entire website and I host it privately just for myself for future browsing.
