Oldest original formatting website still up to date: milk.com (milk.com)
 

I was cruising internet nostalgia and found that milk.com is largely the same formatting today (updated March 2023) as it was back in 1996.

I had quite a chuckle at the tagline in the footer: milk.com is a blink-free zone.

Instead of ads Lemmy operators should be paid for hosting. Users should be asked for funding on a periodic basis (perhaps a small number of subscribers could fund the entire hosting for all.)

No one should assume this is all free forever.
