I'm nostalgic for something that's not even a year old: DALL-E Mini.
Yep, the sheer level of freedom and fun I had using that hypnagogic monstrosity machine in the summer of 2022 while simultaneously losing all my sapience waiting for any sign that I had been inducted into the DALL-E 2 beta— gonna relish those memories for the rest of my days.

^ This but for Ganbreeder and its "collages".

Algorithmic generators (mostly music) too.

The Golden Age of source engine Machinima and Steam in general. When Valve made games and when steam got novel new features every year. 2004 to 2013 or so. Anytime before steam switched to a blue color scheme, and especially before steam early access existed.

Immediately thought of that 3D Library of Babel game and playing it while waiting for school to end in 8th grade.

I remember always trying to fall out of bounds in walking simulators.

Fond memories of playing this, back in the mid-90s.

My Dad had an old Macintosh Performa 450 (the same computer I first used the Internet on).
