Nihahahaha

Hosted thanks to Neocities Supporter subscription. Come check it out, it's neat!

Have you seen this gremlin?

It all started one evening in july of 2024, when i was scrolling dumb stuff on my phone in spare time. I found a certain post...
One of Blue Archive meme profiles on Twitter (back when i still browsed Twitter, RIP) posted this image:

Ever dream this gremlin? Every night all over the world, hundreds of people see this face in their dreams. If this gremlin appears in your dreams too, or if you have any information that can help us identify ger, please contact us. www.nihahahaha.org

Of course some people tried to visit that url, and someone in the comments mentioned that the domain is not registered. Not for long! I decided to see how easy it'd be to do all of this on my phone:

Registering the domain
Getting somewhere to host it
Actually making the page

Domain part was fairly easy. For hosting i decided to go with Neocities, mostly for the step 3. Most of the page was made using Neocities online file editor and upload. After that, i tweaked a lot on a normal keyboard and screen. But majority of Nihahahaha.org has been made over about three evenings on a phone.

The page is kept as simple as possible. No tracking, no credits, nothing except for its primary purpose. Because this is what i wanted it to be - an extremely silly thing, done in spare time, for a quick laugh.

Combined costs of domain and hosting are small enough not to worry about it for years. And the positive upside of this is that i finally got enough of a reason to throw a few dollars at Neocities monthly. Well deserved, i'd say - it lowers the barrier of entry for just putting a bunch of html online. Which is neat!

Also - why Supporter? Because i needed an audio file and custom domain. If you don't need this kind of stuff on a normal Powered By HTML™️ website, Neocities is free to use. Neat x2 combo! c:

( this is not an ad, but oh man, i just needed to get it off my chest how much i love that this portal exists - i'd never have made this silly gremlin page or the trash site you're on if not for it!)

By the way - no, i'm not running the Kokoyuki Ch. on Youtube. It's another person entirely, but i enjoy some/most of their videos! :3
One of the bigger spikes of traffic coming to nihahahaha.org was when one of Kokoyuki vids linked to it in the description. That's probably when some people got the idea that the site and the channel are made by the same person :T
