RIP Angelfire and Tripod

RIP Angelfire and Tripod... I was kinda late to the party, but Lycos on April 24, 2026 decided to permanently shutdown their web hosting services Angelfire and Tripod.

Many MUGEN sites were hosted by Angelfire and Tripod. Just a few months ago I was browsing Tripod MUGEN sites, and now they are no more. Too many times the good ol days are being erased during my life time. Wow. But, Internet Archive is still around, and they have archived many Angelfire and Tripod sites.

Someone told me about 4 months ago that Angelfire got shutdown, and I was hoping that Lycos would fix it, but they didn't. Instead, this was a sign that Lycos was planning to shut down Angelfire and Tripod in April, 2026. That was the worst that I feared, and it came true. Lycos's site is still up though.

Is it time to move on? Not for me. I'm still kicking it in the past. Well, more work is put on my table. I'll be posting authors' creations that were hosted on Angelfire and Tripod... suitable for this site and my collections.

Also, RIP to Freewebs/Webs. They got shutdown a few years ago.
