Comment on Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying.
DontMakeMoreBabies@lemm.ee 1 week agoHow funny if we revert back to tons of search engines and web rings… Frankly that might not be the worst.

Web rings still exist, you just wouldn’t know it because search engines don’t show you the types of sites that use them, which is usually personal sites.
I sometimes use excite.com (oldschool) for searching, and get better results than the major ones, sometimes not. Most people have no clue its even still up. I haven’t dug much, so I don’t know much about its current state. Like tripod sites, how they still exist but are full of hidden junk.
