These websites were made to test out if your installed web browser is compliant with the worldwide web standards. It’s pretty neat stuff
Ironically they no longer work properly.
I still use wikimapia.org
(It’s not associated with Wikipedia.)
The only limitation is yourself
“You can do anything at Zombocom”
That is correct.
If you like to play chess, check out www.lichess.org
It’s free and open source, and it’s very easy to find a game there, no matter what level you play.
It doesn’t display annoying ads.
All of the games ever played on lichess along with puzzles, evaluations etc are also open and free to download at database.lichess.org
The site’s founder and lead developer Thibault also often streams the development of the site on his Twitch channel!
I’m honestly suprised sometimes at how free, open and transparent this site is, truly an inspiration for anyone looking to build an ethical platform.
Japanese chess is excellent too. Http://lishogi.org
It always makes me sad that chess.com was the site that blew up. I always had to convince my friends to use lichess when I played back in school.
zoo.replicate.dev - a bunch of free ai image generation models
snowfl - a search engine for torrents
I might’ve came across it from a post here on Lemmy, but this website is great for music discovery. It lets you listen to music by decade and country via a neat map UI.
…can you not make me feel like a fossil
I’m pretty sure everyone on Lemmy is exactly 37 years old, and grew up with ytmnd
Hey! I won’t be 37 for another two months!
Can we talk about just how cool that cartoon is? And this is in the present tense; they’re still making things. They did an entire playthrough of a text adventure, complete with added music and Powered By The Cheat graphics added, which is just sublime.
For French speaking ppl : https://estcequejeanmarielepenestmort.info/
It is a website that tell you if Jean-Marie Lepen, far right islamophobic racist guy that created the far right party that is now going to win the election, is dead or not.
I really liked this blog like 10+ years ago.
He’s got a lot of funny stuff on there where he eats unusual food, talks about a fungus growing on his trees, and other things he has observed. He even has an interview with Adam Savage!
He is also the none pizza left beef pizza guy.
Is it Steve! Don’t eat it?
Yes, Steve, Don’t Eat It! I think the first thing that I saw on his site was the FedEx logo thing, but Steve, Don’t Eat It was the thing that kept me on the site.
Not something I visit often nowadays, but I still peruse Gamewinners via the Archive for cheat codes on PS2 era and older games. Gamefaqs has the faqs and walkthroughs, but gamewinners had the cheats. Kinda sad that the best equivalent to it nowadays is youtube videos showing exploits of games.

I still break out into Badger, badger, badger occasionally…
Plenty of people know about albionblacksheep.com It was a go-to website back in the early 2000’s.

There are a lot of people here who weren’t born back in the early 2000s
And in that same vein, I would like to nominate zombo.com
I love Apocamon. Too bad it never got completed.
Surprised no-one said <your lemmy instance here>
NGL, I’m scrolling through to see if anyone did this.
GPL interactive flash animations.
This was fairly cutting edge around 98 or 2002 when I first saw it. Really clean.
Not sure how any of the levitated Flash content can be shown now, but it appears that the creator Jared Tarbell is creating new works at infinite.center under MIT licence.
These look to be some of the best digital artworks available today.
I recommend Ruffle for viewing Flash content in the modern day. It aims to be a full reimplementation of Flash in HTML5, available as a desktop app or browser extension. It’s still in beta, so it can’t play all flash files yet, but it works great for the vast majority (it seems to work for all the animations on that site). It even works on mobile.
I thought all flash content was lost and sealed, thanks for that link.
If it doesn’t work, you don’t have working ipv6.
Very similar to a puzzle from a collection that I play on Android:
