The website makes bold claim of being best viewed in Netscape 3. That does not seem to be the case though https://i.imgur.com/WKpmd28.png


The whole website is nothing but nostalgia bullsh*t :D


I don't believe it was done by a nostalgic person - rather someone who wasn't really there at the time and just wants to mock it. The things that were great then have nothing to do with the ones presented on that page.


It's written with Vue js


I love this! Netscape 3 was a pretty tough browser to get stuff (especially JS) working in.


Wow, that's the nostalgia at the bottom of your screenshot:

"27% of 3182K (at 1.5K/sec, 25:33 remaining)"


For me it's not nostalgia, it's reality. I could not believe that in 2021 i will experience internet like in 1996 waiting for an image to load. But it seems that we are cursed.


I can see the alert() debugging already.


The hero we need.


Imgur was again an example of shitty design. I could not use iPhone’s quick look to check the screen shot. I had to open the page only to consent to all cookie usage, and after giving consent the image opened in the Imgur app. Why would it ask for consent again and again, and why didn’t it open the app immediately?
