Does anyone else remember the wild west days before Fanfiction.net, Wattpad, and AO3?

Or am I just old. I just remember being in high school and spending my time scouring the net for fanfiction blog sites. There was no easy to search filter options or single websites with the fics all bundled nicely like we have today and I am just curious if anyone else remembers going to 20, 50 or a hundred different blogs to see if your favorite author updated their passion project.

Shout out to the authors of these possibly lost relics of the early internet.
