Mostly on Wiby.
Looking for websites that somehow survived.

Hi, blue friends.
Finally decided to make an account here.
I spend way too much time digging through old websites, so I figured I'd start sharing some of my finds.
Hope you'll find something you like here too.
I'm usually using Wiby.org, Archive.org and places like that.
Alright, today's find:

dreamwiki.sixey.es/welcome.dream/

This feels less like reading a website and more like accidentally opening a field guide from another civilization.
9/10, because I'm apparently very easy to impress with ASCII art.

Also, show me your own findings if you want to, blues!

Alright, today's find:

deathreference.com⁠

An entire encyclopedia of death and dying, arranged from A to Z.
I don’t know why “very organized mortality” is comforting, but apparently it is. 8/10.

There is something oddly comforting about browsing old websites after midnight. Like walking through a town where people already went to sleep. Maybe that's why I keep staying up.

Today's find:
garfriend.me

You find a bait shop in the abyss.
Naturally, the next few hours disappear into fish, photography, old cars and beautifully hand-made webpages.
This is exactly the kind of internet I was hoping to find.

11/10. Pure fish energy.
Would enter the bait shop again.
a bait shop? ...in space?

Today's find:
carriswheel.com/cwheel%E2%81...

Everything is moving. Everything is jumping. I tried to read the page and the page said no.
I have absolutely no idea what's happening. But it's fun.
7/10 for the faces.

Alright, today's find:
www.manuelsweb.com

First of all, R.I.P. Gabby.
You looked like a very good boy.
But honestly, I still have no idea how the cocker spaniels, a short-range nuclear missile and Netflix all ended up on the same website.
Whatever. 10/10 for all the cute dog pictures.

Still rocking a Zune in 2026 because it just friggin' works. No streaming services, no ads, no fees, no algorithms and it does the one thing I want it to do, play my music. Such a simple thing they don't want you to have anymore.

I tried to clean some of my bookmarks today, but now I have even more. Help. I can't stop, lol.

Today's find:
zorotl.com/index.php

Zorotl has an official biography.
Not a fan page or character summary.
He has parents, a home planet and a history of multidimensional communication.
I came because I remembered blue guy from Eiffel 65.
I was not prepared for the lore.
11/10. Blue friend approved.

Wow, 6 followers already?
I didn't thought that someone else would like my kinda specific hobby. Thanks, blues!

Today's find:
www.imitationpickles.org/rinds/index....

A surprisingly passionate website dedicated to microwaveable pork rinds. It somehow survived, complete with bright colors, and a Hall of Fame. I have no idea why this exists, but I'm glad it does.

Honestly? 8/10 for the color palette alone.
