You can't get more focused than textfiles. This is an online museum about a specific aspect of internet lore and history. Jason Scott is an archivist/historian.
Is it growing up? For me it’s more that everyone reads books like „How to brand yourself on the internet“ that’s why there is no personality left... the same goes for quirky software there is not much coming because everyone writes a sideproject notetaking electron app because it’s something everyone wants and can relate too. The problem with the modern web is not growing up it is the loss of personality.

Like ahlzeimers? It doesn't make sense that the graphics heavy world would have less personality than the constrained world of text.
Back in those days a place like textiles would be an aggregator on a fairly small internet. Most of those content types can be found with their own larger more focused niche sites.
