I miss web indexes. It felt much more like an act of discovery to drill down to a topic I might not have otherwise been interested in to find some gem of a web page, and then to check that pages links and webrings. It always gives me joy to come across one, even if all the pages on it are long abandoned.

I used to work for an IoT startup that really wanted the domain mq.tt. And in that era, Trinidad and Tobago's national domain administrator would only conduct business in-person, and required payment by international money order.
A facilitator was found, a deal was negotiated, and then the lawyers got involved and went "no way in hell will we let the company's primary domain renewal rely on someone walking a money order into an office in Trinidad". C'est la vie

Pure HTML and CSS. Performant and accessible, as things should be. We must return to the fundamentals.

Not sure if my memory is faulty on this one, quick search didnt turn anything up.
Didn't some of the cypherpunks move out to anguila to avoid the crypto export bans during the first crypto wars?

ai was also one of the ccTLDs that had an MX record for a long time, and I believe (although never had reason to confirm) actually used it. foo@ai tended to be a fun test case for e-mail validation.
