Catch of the Day: The Easter Special (8-Bit Wonders & PowerPC Dreams) 🐰💾

Hey Retro Fans!

We hope you had a relaxing holiday weekend and found plenty of Easter eggs. While we were enjoying the break, you hid some absolute top-tier retro gems in our server logs! We just checked the weekend stats, and all we can say is: Wow!

The highlights of our Easter Special:

🕹️ FrogFind on a C64? We recorded several visits from the Contiki Browser! Contiki OS is a tiny operating system that brings networking, a GUI, and a web browser to 8-bit machines like the Commodore 64, Apple II, or early Ataris. It runs on mere kilobytes of RAM. An absolute masterpiece of coding swimming in the Frog pond!

🦋 Greetings from the MorphOS niche: We had strong traffic from the Odyssey Web Browser running on MorphOS. This fascinating OS is deeply intertwined with Amiga history and breathes new life into old PowerPC Macs and Amiga accelerator boards.

🪟 The Windows 9x Lifeline: With over 300 clicks this weekend, RetroZilla made a strong appearance. This brilliant browser allows classic Windows 95 and 98 machines to continue navigating the text web securely.

It is an absolute honor to serve everything from 8-bit machines to PowerPC exotics. We hope you had a fantastic holiday!
Your FrogFind Team 🐸

Retrozilla: aktueller Webbrowser für Windows 95 + 98

Wenn man mit Windows 98 und dem Internet Explorer 6 "mal schnell" eine Datei vom Internet herunterladen will, scheitert das in der heutigen Zeit an der HTTPS-Verschlüsselung von Webseiten.

Ein findiger Entwickler hat eine alte Version des Webbrowsers SeaMonkey genommen, ihm um aktuelle Protokolle ergänzt und ihn #Retrozilla getauft.
Damit kann man unter Windows 98 nun auch problemlos HTTPS-Seiten ansurfen.
