You know, I kind of miss Geocities too.

Sadly they will be publishing on a web which has no human readers anymore because it’s been crowded out by 5 trillion AI slop gardening websites. And the only visitors will be other AI scraper bots.

Any actual readers will be on platforms which combat the bot spam.

While large social media sites have captured lots of traffic, etc. I've had small websites for a local wargaming club, a very modest blog, etc. for decades requiring little or no technical expertise.

The idea that people who want modest websites need active agentic systems to do that is a really odd take.
