Peripheral Web Stuff Anonymous 2024-03-15 (Fri) 03:04:53 No.23711

I watched this video recently, and have been fascinated by the concept of "the peripheral web" (in contrast to "core web") and want to find more stuff out there. So how about a thread where we share neat stuff we find on the peripheral web?

First thing that comes to mind for me that isn't a blog or meta on this topic feel free to share either tho, just wanted to start the thread on a cool note is https://firstpersontetris.com/

The grumpy purple pony in this mock dialogue is unironically correct btw.

Oh certainly, having the two characters riff off each other lets the author cover a lot of nuance quickly. Makes me want to make videos in a similar format.

Deep web is when you need a password to access a site.

I feel like a good example would be something that:
- meets the criterion to count as peripheral web
- links to other sites that also meet that criterion

OP's Tetris example is more of a couldesac, the only links in it go back to the core web. There's probably a reason that the video focuses so much on the personal website aspect, that's gonna be the webbier parts of the periphery.
Could've just linked to the video series's accompanying site, the links section has some better examples: https://loveweb.neocities.org/main/

You mean like, websites that aren't social media platforms?

It's a music player with a bunch of videogame music on it.

As an experiment, I am going to (at least try to) exclusively coom to art made by artists who have posted those works to their personal website.

If even core web sites can fall off due to lack of / difficulty to access NSFW content–Tumblr, for example–then that could be that's a factor in why people gravitate to the core, and one that seems immediately addressable if you can get people to make the habit of making pages linking to them.

Sites I've found so far:

Already down. I doubt posting on /leftypol/ would hug of death it, so probably gone for good out of disinterest. If you like something archive it. HDD (or LTO for longer term preservation) are cheap in terms of storage space.

Oh oops, https://vanh.art/
n and h look too similar on the default font my browser is using. I need to set it back to comic mono or something.
