Nice. I like the font.

I tested in some old browsers. Loads fine in RetroZilla with newer ciphers enabled ( Re: Very New VOGONS on Old Systems: using the 2020 era forums on retro PCs ), and in Internet Explorer 5.5 with WebOne proxy.

It even loads and displays okay with Netscape Navigator 3 (with WebOne), but the colors are gone.

Neat. 😎 Could pass as a late 80s Videotex(t) page, too.
Or any other service using CEPT-like glyphs.
Or ANSI mailboxes (BBSes). 😀

Ripped from Amiga.

I've updated page again and it looks like it lost it's vintage compatibility.

Can't make autoplay of backdrop audio working. It looks like it is blocked in chrome.
Palemoon was tricked by empty frame and silent mp3 with 1 second, but not new Firefox.
