Egg2.com was my favorite flash game archive. Literally just a few hundred links to various flash games.

I got there right after the facelift in the early oughts, when they switched to vBulletin.
Shortly before the last shutdown, I cloned the entire website and I host it privately just for myself for future browsing.
Bolt.com! It was OG social networking and I loved it. it had chat rooms, message boards, and games etc. Miss that place
I was hoping someone else would say Bolt! That was such a great website way back. The message boards and games were so much fun. I spent way too many hours behind a computer at the library specifically to go on that website.
Yes! I made so many friends back then
I would say MSN Chat/Groups. I know MSN itself is still alive and well, but those two things used to have been a way to feel a bond within a community. It was some of my earlier stages of roleplaying online with people, up until the day Microsoft decided to slap a subscription onto chat and then outright discontinuing it when that model fell apart.
I used to use the NME website, which was a weekly music paper in the UK, back in the day.
It had forums and free webmail, so I had had an nme.com address that made me feel kinda cool (I was a teenager and music was very much my identity).
Then they cancelled the webmail and that was that. All my teen emails gone forever. I'd love to get them back, and who knows,they could be sitting on a server somewhere, but I doubt it.
Oh, also Bebo. Posted a lot on that precursor to Facebook and now it's all gone.
Some of the old hardware forms, Gideontech and Pimprig/PCApex.
I mean, whether or not I liked Sodahead, whether or not it was good for me, and whether or not it was a good website are all questions without definitive answer, but I sure did spend my teenage years there

Peak Myspace-era cringe but so fun
back when there was not much excite was very nice. If it would have gotten tabs like yahoo it would have went at least as long.
Steakandcheese.com when Kap was running it.
Searchlores.org
Something happened to fmh-child.org
It isn't what it used to be.
The Conversatron. The Internet was a different place back then.
userfriendly.org . One of the great early web comics.
Ghcif.de
I used to visit Filesoup's forums a fair bit, and Homestar Runner too.
Anyone remember Happy Puppy?
There used to be rotten.com, which posted extremely disturbing pictures and I don't miss that part of it. But I do miss the Rotten Library, which used to be a bastion of suppressed literature.
My old stomping grounds, the indie gaming blog GameSetWatch.
I loved DDRFreak forums and RODiary. RIP to both of those sites.
