What is this place?

!hmmm@lemmy.world with text and titles

• post obscure and surreal art with text

• nothing memetic, nothing boring

• unique textural art images

• Post only images or gifs (except for meta posts)

Guidlines

• no video posts are allowed

• No memes. Not even surreal ones. Post your memes on !surrealmemes@sh.itjust.works instead

• If your submission can be posted to !hmmm@lemmy.world (I.e. no text images), It should be posted there instead

This is a curated magazine. Post anything and everything. It will either stay up or be lost into the void.

Damn! This talk of forgotten search engines made me realise that dogpile.com is still alive! I dimly recall using it before Google's rise to power.

What a blast from the past. I remember using Lycos in my school's computer room. That was almost 25 years ago.

Lycos Mail was the very first example of email I ever saw. It blew my mind when I was a small kid.
