Bear's tilde.town home features a thoughtful collection of small web tools, projects, and reflections on the philosophy of personal sites as living documents rather than static printed pages. The page links to creative coding experiments, note-taking tools, a write.as publishing platform, and musings on how people change over time in ways that chronological blogs fail to capture.
https://melonsoda.nekoweb.org/
Melonsoda's self-described 'tropical paradise' is an adult personal site with a bold, irreverent aesthetic and explicit content warnings for mature, kink-friendly, and NSFW material. The landing page sets clear community boundaries and a deliberately provocative tone, signaling a site built for a specific adult subculture audience.

BluePuffin's personal Blogger-hosted blog features periodic diary-style entries covering everyday life, media recommendations, and reflections on topics like degoogling and world events.

https://mycelial.technology/
Glyph's personal site explores the intersection of mycology, botany, coding, and decentralized technology through a philosophy of symbiosis and 'wu wei.' Visitors will find art, projects, and musings spanning fungi cultivation, fermentation, electronics, meditation, and computers, all woven together by a vision of a multispecies future.
https://nekromant.neocities.org/
NEKROMANT is a mysterious, gothic-styled personal page on Neocities with a dark aesthetic and minimal splash screen inviting visitors to enter. The site's heavy use of atmospheric imagery and its name suggest a dark or occult subculture focus, though the full content lies beyond the entry page.
https://tilde.town/~kirch
Kirch's tilde.town page is a wonderfully eclectic personal hub packed with generative poetry tools, vintage computing tributes, rogue-like games, and quirky cult-themed experiments. A true tilde community member, Kirch shares everything from BBC Micro music tech to ANSI art and a random magnetic poetry generator, making this a delightful rabbit hole of old-web creativity.
https://tilde.town/~sanqui
Sanqui's tilde.town homepage is a minimalist personal page featuring playful CSS experiments and links to archived older versions of the site. Part of the tilde.town community, it embodies the old-web revival aesthetic with its cheerful self-deprecating humor and red-and-cyan shadow effects.
