to SupekiBlue: what is this? is this a recreation of something or just an old website, i dont include websites that are just old. it's still pretty cool looking though!

to Ginger1234: im not entirely sure if i SHOULD add it since there's probably no way to get this running on a DS but sure, added!

I'm not sure if it's just a me issue or not, but the Reddit Classic userstyle just loads a white screen / blank page when I click on the link.

Also I think you should include this in your second list because I don't think this fits here

this list is amazing i love it sm!!

i've noticed some outdated stuff on it tho:

cleantalk - got shutdown
classictube - broken, can't watch videos
youtube05 - shut down
externaltube - doesn't seem to work, cloudflare error
goldentube - same case as classictube
3gpipe - firefox warns me about this site and didn't let me go on it lol, videos don't work
"Youtube late 2009/early 2010 theme for YewTube" - got removed
"EraCast epic panda theme" - not available
bwitter - shut down

dashboard unfucker is no longer mantained (dev stopped cuz of the tumblr's staff transmisogyny. sucks but its understandable) and is not working anymore

also "Youtube Mobile - Old Design" is twice on this list. actually i think i've seen some other duplicates on this list as well but am too lazy to go thru the entire list rn lol maybe later

I noticed that when bookmarking websites in firefox that had the favicon changed by tampermonkey or stylus, the icon on the bookmark will revert back to the modern one, is there any way to fix this?

i dont know how to fix that, extensions/userscripts like V3 have their custom favicons show up in the bookmarks though

Not sure if it fits the other stuff here since it's not a skin / frontend for an existing site or a revival of discontinued programs / games, but I found this site called Wiby in a YouTube video about old internet stuff, it apparently searches specifically non-commercial websites so you can find personal / old websites easier.

I've tried it out a bit and it works well, found a few sites from 1997-2007 with a few last updated as recent as 2018. (I say it like that WASN'T 6 years ago now lol)

Add Bloxstrap (Roblox custom bootstrap), it has functions where you can recover the old menu, the old cursor, etc... And you can install mods there without need to do it every update.

to Ginger1234: streetpass still works without needing to download this, im not super sure if i should add this. also the super mario 64 beta was never released, i dont plan on adding stuff that never came out, thank you for sending!

to Nicolas Perez: i dont want to add more roblox stuff then i need to, but if it lets you add mods without needing to readd them every update then sure i'll add it. thanks for sending

Hello, I see that you are trying to make the internet look retro style, I also like retro style and that's why I'm on this social network but my question is, will this slow down the computer or the browser? Because to do all that this needs a lot of extensions and maybe some third-party programs so that can make it slower, please explain, because a few years ago I wanted to make my computer, which is Windows 10, look like Windows 98 because I like retro as I said, and in fact I achieved it with many programs like Classic Shell, but what happened is that my computer is low resources and by installing so many things, so many themes and so many third-party programs, this made the computer extremely slow, so I had to get it back to normal so I'm wondering if so I don't know if doing this, which is very similar to the previous in a browser like Google Chrome due to an overload of extensions (which must have a lot of extensions and maybe some third-party programs), this will cause the browser to slow down or maybe even affect the computer going back to slow.

as far as i'm aware of most of the stuff on this list wont slow down your computer, userstyles don't seem to slow down websites either but some userscripts do. applications like windowblinds or explorerpatcher can eat up more resources on your computer, but this list is mostly extensions and those dont seem to do anything outside of your browser. thank you for asking!

also if you're worried about your resources being eaten up you probably shouldn't use chrome

Yes, I don't really use Chrome, I'm writing this from Microsoft Edge.

Thank you for the clarification, the truth is that I had that doubt, because it is a very interesting topic and the truth is that it would be very sad if it did not work on low-income PCs due to the slowness of the machine.

Thanks for replying and thanks for adding me to your friends, you make interesting Forums and blogs, I also made a Forum about Edge being better than Chrome casually in case you want to read it :D

My Forum: Egde is better than Chrome, but no one uses it - Web, HTML, Tech Forum | SpaceHey

to Generic_Dev: Glad you like my forums! By the way, the reason I mentioned Chrome is because Chromium browsers eat up a lot of memory, Edge is also chromium, if your computer is struggling you should switch to Firefox.

to newlinersseries: All of those are already on my other list linked above, besides Arctic Fox and Geckium because they aren't out yet. thank you for sending anyways!
