Can you please provide a link to the website you're referring to?

The current website is <https://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/>, but that
is minimal and doesn't have any <pre> tags.

Or maybe you're referring to
<https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/man-pages/man-pages.git/tree/README>
?

That's not the website, but rather a web view of the source code of the
repository.  It does use <pre> for everything, but because it's
formatting an entire file in the source repository.

Have a lovely day!
