<h6>Neocities is bringing back the creativity and free expression that made the web great.</h6>
<p>
We are tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other in
boring social networks, generic templates which define what people are
supposed to know or communicate with each other. It's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless,
monetized, monitored entities and let our creativity flourish again.
</p>
<p>
That's where Neocities comes in. We provide a canvas for people to make any web site they want.
Whether it be a web site about something they're good at, something they love, something they hate, or
their own custom "Profile" where they can introduce themselves in a way that actually matters to them.
And we can do this without selling out to the marketing industry.
</p>
<p>
It's a big project (to make small sites), and we have a lot of work to do.
</p>
<p>
Neocities is just getting started, and we've got a lot of amazing things in store. Thanks for believing in us. We'll try very hard to not let you down.
</p>
<p>
Love,
</p>
<p>
