Sure you could go there still now. But it's an empty husk of what it was before. Flash died without any viable replacement for all the old flash games that relied on it.

My state passed ID verification for adult websites, does that count?

Digg.
I wouldn't be on Lemmy today if it weren't for Digg committing suicide, forcing everyone to switch to reddit. And then reddit went full retard with the 3rd party app thing, so here I am.

Best free shit. Vanished without a trace in a day
Egg2.com was my favorite flash game archive. Literally just a few hundred links to various flash games.

Peak Myspace-era cringe but so fun
Yahoo Games

What.cd?
So hard to keep a ratio, too
lalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala.con one day as a kid just typed in a random amount of la and .com and that just appeared.

They were super early YouTube.
Wow! I can't believe I forgot this!! Core memories unlocking...
Were? I get their short clips in my Youtube recommendations.
The SciFi channel forums used to have a "caption this" page where they had stills from their channel's live feed people could post quips about. That was back when they aired MST3K.
I used to spend hours watching people try to be funny.
I miss the old SciFi channel website. The chatrooms there are where my life on the internet began. Too much time spent chatting about this weeks episode of Sliders or when there was a petition because they cancelled MST3K and we fought to get it back.
back when there was not much excite was very nice. If it would have gotten tabs like yahoo it would have went at least as long.
The old Cartoon Network website. Used to play a lot of flash games on there back in the day, probably like most every other person who had that channel.
I would say Nitrome, but they're still alive even if they're a shell of their former self IMO.
I miss the Teen Titans game on there.
The one where you go through the UK-ified Jump City? If so, yeah, same here. Never beat it. Might see if it's on Flashpoint and try to actually beat it some day.
There used to be a website called "thesmartass(dot)info". It had online emulators for old video game consoles as well as some flash games and a bunch of other stuff that I never used. The homepage also had a daily (or it might have been weekly, I've forgotten) artwork that was usually abstract but sometimes it got weird. Like, there is this one image that I sometimes think about, where it was a realistic looking image of a naked woman (or at least I think it was a woman) with a really long and flexible torso, and her torso is contorted so she fits inside a box.
I don't know when it happened but it seems like the domain has been transferred over to someone else and it's a completely different website now. Also, I did check the Wayback Machine and it is archived but it seems like it wasn't archived properly as the website is almost completely broken.
I mean, whether or not I liked Sodahead, whether or not it was good for me, and whether or not it was a good website are all questions without definitive answer, but I sure did spend my teenage years there

It started with a lot of people who disliked Slashdot. Kinda like Lemmy is full of a lot of people who dislike Reddit. It had a broader subject matter than Slashdot, though. You might end up reading about someone's experience of being fully immersed in a BDSM relationship where all windows were covered, all clocks were removed, and they spend the entire day in service to their master until a safeword is called. (IIRC, that went on for something like 6 months, but when they came out, the person thought it was closer to 4).
Or it might just be about how badly WEP on WiFi broke this week. There was a lot of that at the time.
There were probably three waves of users. I was around for the first; my UID is around 2,700. Second started around UID 30,000 and I think it was also mostly Slashdot refugees. Third was around UID 50,000 and it really went downhill with that one.
Did Ru5ty ever add the extra functionality he collected all those donations for?

Hey look I'm hamster dancing.
Reddit. Unfortunately it's defunct beyond repair now, but back in the day it was a nice place to discuss all sorts of topics with knowledgeable and like-minded folk.
The Zionists and American fascists seem to be taking it over too.
r/politics was mass censoring any coverage of the Jimmy Kimmel debacle recently.
Rip Stumble upon.
I kinda miss stumbleupon. Found a lot of cool flash games and stuff from that!

I used to use the NME website, which was a weekly music paper in the UK, back in the day.
It had forums and free webmail, so I had had an nme.com address that made me feel kinda cool (I was a teenager and music was very much my identity).
Then they cancelled the webmail and that was that. All my teen emails gone forever. I'd love to get them back, and who knows,they could be sitting on a server somewhere, but I doubt it.
Oh, also Bebo. Posted a lot on that precursor to Facebook and now it's all gone.
Back in 1995, I was still using Gopher, when someone showed me WWW. I soon found the chatroom at Mrshowbiz.com, and was hooked to this new Internet technology.
But my favourite was Geocities. Had several sites there. They taught me HTML coding, and that there was such a thing as too many "Under construction" animated gifs.
Not dead, but not nearly as alive as it used to be.

No, not the social network with my friend Tom, I mean the online file storage (would now be called 'cloud' storage) site that it was before it died and Tom bought the domain.
It had an astounding 300MB of space available for free, much more than the contemporary competition.
Of course now there's Google Drive, Dropbox, etc. Myspace was just too far ahead of their time.
300mb is pretty freaking decent
