"Better" is subjective a lot of the time, but load times are not. Modern web is so. slow. It's like watching that Sloth in Zootopia sometimes browsing the modern web.

What is this engagement-bait headline? The content of the site is simply an old-looking site.

Crafted websites look better than thoughtless websites. Age has nothing to do with it, unless you're going way back to dial-up and the very beginning when WWW was competing with Gopher and BBS. Webmaster was a real job. Go find out what happened to webmasters; it answers a lot of questions.
