https://scourgescloset.neocities.org/
A personal page belonging to someone who participated in the selfship webring, a community centered around the hobby of self-shipping with fictional characters. The site is image-heavy and minimal in text, giving it the feel of a small personal corner of the old web.
https://tilde.town/~skk
A tilde.town member page by skk, consisting of a bare-bones homepage created by directly SSH-ing in and editing the index file. Nearly empty aside from a greeting, it represents the minimalist DIY spirit of the tilde community movement.

https://jellyfishforest.com/duckyfeet
Duckyfeet is Jessica's personal homepage, version 17, themed around narwhals with a playful old-web aesthetic full of graphics and a tagboard. The 'So long, and thanks for all the fish' farewell quote and narwhal theme give this compact site a charming marine-life personality.
https://cyberpunk.cl/
A minimalist cyberpunk-aesthetic personal page built around leet-speak text art, protocol references, and the visual language of underground hacker and cyberpunk culture. The site's sparse content layers internet protocol codes (SMTP, XMPP, PGP, IPFS, Tor onion) with themes of alienation, paranoia, and isolation in a style that feels like a terminal readout from a dystopian future.
https://tilde.town/~rll
A sparse early member page on tilde.town, one of the original collaborative Unix communities that helped revive old-web culture. User rll muses briefly about creativity and pottery in a pair of timestamped journal-style entries from October 2014.
