I love this so much. I believe there is a sea of valuable blogs being buried in google search indexing weird SEO rules, and whatever crawling the AI systems are doing. We need to preserve the actual human generated content that predates AI. Wishing you huge success, thank you!
Don't know where your colors and style come from, but imo you're doing fine on that front.
Nice project also! Bookmarked.
In the same vein; I stumbled upon Wander (pun intended) by browsing a HN post from yesterday. I really like that take on discovery of smaller curated websites.

I'm always amazed when people go through the trouble of adding a light/dark theme switcher rather than just respecting the user's system preference with `prefers-color-scheme`[0].
I am not exactly sure if it was my comment itself which helped in it but no matter what, this is exactly what I was talking about and I am so glad that you made it!
Really awesome work! Definitely gonna add my blog site into a few of these and just gonna scroll it, ah this feels so good, i really appreciate your effort and I hope more people share even more indexes and it becomes an even more complete index of all indexes and we preserve the spirit of the open internet! This feels really good to me! :-)
Ah great, well I am happy that it was within the same discussion and I am happy that I could help reinforce a positive change on the internet and so thanks for making this website because this is exactly what I wanted/wished when I had written that comment :-D
I am right now thinking of connecting all these indexes within the list as much as I can into rss files and going to hopefully tinker around with some rss with all these indexes listed within your website and this has certainly brought me a bit of hope regarding the open internet if enough people use such indexes or index of indexes :-D
Edit: The rss section within your website has been really helpful in finding websites which are doing what I am talking about and so many other things, its been so good delving in these things and I find it really nice :-)
this is great. Google has a vendetta against small personal blogs and is one of the original reasons why I fell in love with Google was because I got to discover all these indie publishers. as much as I love sub stack and Reddit these platforms along with all the garbage and slop is pushing us down.

This is an amazing project, alternative domain “the-indiex”
ha now I wish I had thought of that.

You can do both, because some people like having per-site color controls.
Like I prefer to read prose and literary website content in light mode while keeping my OS in dark mode.
Admittedly it's a niche use case.
Hey thank you! That’s awesome, I’ll take a look at Wander this afternoon
Any chance you can put https://hnarcade.com on there?
I saw it in the submissions - seems like it fits.
Why does Kagi's Smallweb have a 'no submissions' label? I was under the impression you just PR:ed here: https://github.com/kagisearch/smallweb
Ah I missed that, thanks! I’ve updated it
The best part is reducing dependence on algorithmic feeds. Sometimes discovery should feel like wandering, not being optimized.
Nice project! Thanks for including Minifeed!
Wait, is this perhaps my comment/disussion?
"Are there any indexes which index all of these too?" - (comment written by me at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48069558)

The one above yours was what set me off on the path but yours helps reinforce it!

refined.blog doesn't work, goes to a GoDaddy page.
Thanks for the heads up! I’ll check it out when I’m back from running errands
I’ve made a submission. I think as time passes there will be a niche for curated content thats free from AI slop.
As the internet gets filled with AI slop, these kind of indexes of real human thought are going to become more important.
Agreed, hopefully someone finds a fun index that they like and it leads them to a new blog or site

I'm hoping one day the entire internet forks
