====== List of Manifestos of the Web Revival ====== There is a long history of digital manifesto writing; going all the way back to the [[https://www.askapache.com/hacking/hacker-manifesto/|Hacker Manifesto]] from 1986 and the [[http://lu.tiny-universes.net/indiewebmanifesto.html|Indie Web Manifesto]] from 1997. A web manifesto can be as simple as a document explaining why you wanted to create a site; it does not need to be political or activism focused, although those are often themes in manifestos. It can simply be your reasons for participating in a cause. Many Web Revival enthusiasts like to write their own manifestos and we have a collected list of active links here. **Feel free to add your own or any you know are missing!** Links marked with an asterisk (*) go to wayback machine links. * [[https://blog.darylsun.page/manifesto|Daryl Sun's Manifesto]] * [[https://web.archive.org/web/20231128132520/https://punkwasp.leprd.space/manifesto.php|punkwasp's Manifesto]] * * [[https://web.archive.org/web/20240315214754/https://awhe.neocities.org/manifesto|Awhe's Manifesto]] * * [[https://starbreaker.org/blog/not-my-side-hustle/|This is Not My Side Hustle by starbreaker]] * [[https://macaque.moe/articles/manifesto|MACAQUE's Manifesto]] * [[https://internationalfeel.neocities.org/manifesto|Cytric Acid's Manifesto]] * [[https://whiteheartrainbowsoul.neocities.org/manifesto|Rin's Manifesto]] * [[https://bechnokid.neocities.org/about/manifesto.html|Bechnokid's Manifesto]] * [[https://thewebisfucked.com/|The Web is Fucked by Kev Quirk]] * [[https://flamedfury.com/manifesto/|My Web Manifesto by flamedfury]] * [[https://petermolnar.net/article/old-web-new-web-indie-web/|Old Web, New Web, Indie Web by Peter Molnar]] * [[https://delovely.neocities.org/writing/why.html|delovely's Why is your site like this?]] * [[https://www.tdpain.net/blog/the-modern-web-sucks|The Modern Web Sucks by Thomas Pain]] * [[https://discoisdead.neocities.org/posts/2022-01-26-Hello-World.html|Disco's Internet Manifesto]] * [[https://web.archive.org/web/20230420000900/https://on-the-grid.neocities.org/manifesto|on-the-grid's manifesto]] * * [[https://web.archive.org/web/20231009164525/https://blindtwig.neocities.org/why|Why Neocities by blindtwig]] * * [[https://web0.small-web.org/|web0 manifesto]] * [[https://10kb.neocities.org/about/why.html|Why Neocities?
