From 1898 on a typewriter. ;)
Any medium can become a medium for art if you work hard enough :)

Anyway, typewriter art is obviously still different from ASCII art/kaomoji because characters can be printed over each other, and a special button allows the cursor to move freely vertically, as opposed to ½/¼ line height (free horizontal positioning and rotation must be done by reloading the paper, which is why some typewriter art doesn’t incorporate these).
I really miss how tacky and cute the internet was. Everything is so pretty and cool now but like… Not in a good way, its just bland.
In 1993 it might have been on a BBS and not the internet at all. :)
All BBSes were on the internet.
This is the most incorrect statement i’ve seen on the internet in a good while

you can still do that you’re allowed
But I’m not a web designer or website host 😔
that’s why geocities came back :3
GeoCities went away and came back? I dont think I ever saw a GeoCities before present day. Its just a place where everyone can have one website and they are usually… Boldly designed, and personal. Right? I get why we need that now, but do you know more?
they might be talking about neocities
