I remember spending hours on my shop page. Had a custom background, music that autoplayed, flashing gifs everywhere. Peak early 2000s internet design.

I was terrible at the games and couldn’t afford any of the actually content, but damn did I love neopets. I would spend hours on the create a pet page. Honestly I would probably still play a modern neo pets game if they came out with an app.

There is still a dedicated following actively playing. Didnt see a community on Lemmy or KBin yet, but it has an active subreddit.

i played it at the public library because they had a t1 connection so it was easier to get stuff from the money tree.
