The original Google pagerank algo is completly broken as there are no homepages anymore. Backlinks from other sites used to be something, but now normal people are on Facebook, Insta or Reddit, where you can't get your links from and commercial sites are doing their own linking game, which is not really useful for establishing the quality of a site. The internet changed

Yeah. The internet is not the same anymore. There's no way to "just do it".

I still sometimes find homepages. Often it's devs having a little personal blog of their holiday photos, cons they visited and links to their various projects on github etc.. The last one in my history is https://richardwong.io for example. I was looking up stuff about the Sway WM when I got there.
