i know its a faux pas here but have a look here for some ~ instant gratification nostalgic fun :

https://html.duckduckgo.com/html?q=image%20to%20ascii [DDG search]

and the other way is a bit risky but look at bittorrent listings and DL ascii art there, [its in the .NFOs of course] it still exists, just be wary when using such sources on a system that will execute .txt as if its .exe as there are sometimes code embedded in the ASCII.

and there is this :

or this :

Go check out https://16colo.rs and enjoy! Lots of art still being put out.
