Is this what the internet felt like? - Lemmy.world

I’ve been exploring the fediverse and subbing and posting all over the damn place. Realizing lemmy can federate with kbin blew my mind. Not to mention the possibility of turning my old laptop into a personal server to host my own instance. Is this what it felt like to discover how the internet worked in the 90s?

Whever anyone asks what the internet used to be like I send them to a little old site called www.homestarrunner.com It's still up after all these years. Truly beautiful.

The link looks right but has one too many r's in the URL. Try www.homestarrunner.com
Everybody! Everybody!

Oddly enough even with the proper URL I'm getting a server not found error

Maybe we gave the site the very first Fediverse hug of death
