Its too bad they didnt menyion the fediverse but still great resources.

I really like Ye Olde Blogroll for finding indie blogs (blogroll.org)Cloudhiker.net and Kagi’s Small Web (kagi.com/smallweb) are two really cool Stumbleupon clones.
Micro.blog and bearblog.dev both have great communities too, if you’re into blogging.
On YouTube. Sigh.
Certainly ironic, given the context.
But how else are you going to reach the normies?
https://tildeverse.org/ is another community worthwhile
Oh yeah thats an awesome one!
How about a tl;dw for people who can read?
Digg does that…
This is the videos community. Are you lost?
Yeah as much as I prefer reading about things like this it is a bit silly to complain about it when it’s literally posted in a video-oriented community.
Great discussion
There’s a website tool hosted on neocities that’s attempting to become a geocities revival.
The video is functionally an ad for the community and the associated Web building tools.
Another walled garden, right in line with Web 2.0, but with a 90s pastiche done up in HTML5. Reminds me a bit of the Vaporwave style that flared up in the mid-10s. Cute, but not groundbreaking.
Another walled garden
Not sure if you meant it this way, but Walled garden usually means ‘Closed Platform’, like a way to trap users. But the video is encouraging the construction of websites that can easily be self-hosted, which is the opposite of a walled garden.

It’s claiming they can be self-hosted, certainly. But they’re also claiming this is some kind of “Web Revival”. Do you know anyone who is building neocities sites and self-hosting them, much less getting any meaningful amount of traffic on their self-hosted websites?
I did till I bought my own domain
Theres a number of websites that he goes through. Its going to be hard to describe.
Lots of neocities but not all of the links are.
Its worth watching.
