I want to make my own homepage on the web.But the problem is, getting people to use a site these days is nearly impossible. Big Tech has made sure to cater to all of your whims and then some. Which one of these would get users, if any?>simple, open source, non-shit version of Reddit (people make their own communities and post content inside them)>file dump site (you just dump pics and videos on there anonymously so you can share the link somewhere)>friendly social media (mocking and trolling others results in a ban)>high IQ social media (there's an IQ test when registering)>simple ad listing site to piss off eBay cuz they have infuriating restrictions for sellers>open source Discord clone to piss Discord off. free Nitro for everyone.Yeah I know Mastodon exists but it failed because it doesn't have a simple user experience.
Geocities or Expage
>>107092428>Which one of these would get users, if any?think about which one you will get the most enjoyment out of using, growing, and communicating with a community oncause youre not becoming the next facebook, retarded to even be motivated by that. you can however, create a little space on the web and maybe have 200 members that you care about chatting too because they share your hobbies and personality
>>107092737>you can however, create a little space on the web and maybe have 200 members that you care about chatting too because they share your hobbies and personalityThat's actually a better and more comfy outcome than building yet another massive, algorithm-run hellscape.We should use several sites, not just the same one.
>>107092768Scientists and Neets both agree smaller Internet is better in literally every way possible.
>>107092428You don't want to make your own homepage on the web, you want to make another slop social media website.
>>107092737>implying there will ever be even 5 people who cares more than a 5 minute visit
>>107093480says more about you than anything else lmfao, lonely fag
>>107093342This. OP is so brainrot he doesn't even know what a personal home page even is.
Anybody who has that avatar and name is to edgy to take seriously in a software project. I prefer software to be stable
I have only one thing I want from the Internet:A site where people are nice and behave themselves.I'm 48 and literally sick and tired of somebody telling me to kill myself when I ask advice on how to fix my bicycle or something.People have fuses so short that they cant even discuss anything without ad hominem, bickering, fighting, name calling etc.Anybody else bothered by this or just me? I mean I'm 48 so I'm in the minority. Maybe you 15-year-olds actually think it's cool or fun or something. After 20 years of "kys retard", I'm just a bout done with the human race.
>>107094027>I'm not gonna use the project if the admin is like THAT!I hate this argument. I'm autistic but I deliver solid products for the benefit of mankind.However, nobody will use my products because I'm not a smiling douchebag like Zuck and Musk.They're businessmen. I'm a programmer.If you have any IQ, you should know not to trust the smiling salesman who says what you want to hear. You should always trust the code of a balding, fat, insufferable autist.I'm not even kidding, think about it for a while.
>>107094168He's right though. Nothing good comes from people who think it's hip to ignore the norms of professionalism. More often than not, these people - "counter-culturalists" - are immature nutcases.
>>107094129Assuming not bait. If you're here because you're rejected from other social spaces, then I can imagine why you'd feel this way. Personally, I love that people can threaten and insult me without repercussions, and exchange/shitpost all sorts of wacky things. I love free spaces.
>>107094445>Personally, I love that people can threaten and insult me without repercussions, and exchange/shitpost all sorts of wacky thingsAre you a sadist? According to a study, sadists seek out spaces where they can do this.Normal people dont enjoy violence and getting away with it.Normal people want to get something productive done.
>>107094440Some people get a free pass apparently.I don't see you boycotting X because of Musk. When someone is powerful enough, you just accept and submit like a dog.
>>107094724Normal people don't post on 4chan.
>>107094724I'm not a sadist. Violence isn't equitable with verbal abuse. Normality is whatever. I am reasonably productive. etc.
>>107094739why is that white nigger still lying about his student visa fraud having no legal right to stay with his mother in canada? "hurrdurr i self-sponsored myself using my own company that hauled around a filing cabinet on wheels, calling it a supercomputer, that ran deflate. im very good employee sarrr. i have no degree and experience, state department saaars. give h1b saars. now i'm an american just like you saaars"
>>107092428I still run a phpBB (now, after migrating from another platform) forum. It's comfy, and we have regulars who have been posting for 20 years. For dumping files we have an ftp server.I don't care about the other stuff you listed, though the forum software has a bunch of socmedia-like features if you want them (we have then turned off so I can't tell how good they really are).
