neat stuff that happens to be on our web

warning: the way stuff is categorized makes no sense and is inconsistent. you'll be sure to find something i'm sure.
warning: there is no guarantee that any particular site will be up at any given time.
warning: i don't host anything listed here, unless it explicitly says so. i take no responsibility for what may be on a site at any point in time.
warning: as you can see, this site looks awful. i will probably never redesign this and you're stuck with this shit-fest. like the material listed here, this open directory's stylesheet too is inconsistent and kinda fucked.
warning: neat is subjective. maybe none of this is neat to you. if you don't like this open directory, i encourage you to make your own.
warning: these aren't even warnings, i don't know why i'm calling them warnings.
warning: if you want me to add something, update something, or remove something from the directory for any reason, please contact me. i'd be happy to hear whatever you have to say and i'll probably respond.

news/aggregators/

laarc

https://laarc.io/

a self-hosted version of hacker news. this place is very small and very inactive, but occasionally something interesting will pop up here.

lobsters

https://lobste.rs/

my favorite aggregator. lobsters has a focus on tech, and there's always stuff here that i enjoy. the discussions are also nice. it's also active enough that i can come back every couple days and have lots of stuff to enjoy.

hacker news

https://news.ycombinator.com/

the most active and popular aggregator on this list. honestly, this place is okay-ish. most stuff here i can also find elsewhere, and i'm not extremely interested in everything this place has to offer. it's here if you want it though.

tildenews

https://tilde.news/

a self-hosted version of lobsters for the tilde community. there's some cool stuff here. it's kinda inactive, but occassionally things will pop up that strike my attention.
