I maintain a similar index-of-indexes but it's intentionally non-curated, restricted to indexes that use the OPML format, and uses autodiscovery to expand the list. The site needs some work, but it's up to 356 indexes. https://blogroll-network.alexsci.com/blogrolls/ I'd recommend looking at anything with "planet" in the name, there are a bunch of tech communities that manage community feeds and they are high quality.…

Another index-of-indexes is https://brisray.com/web/webring-list.htm, which tracks 648 webrings!

And https://brisray.com/web/indiedirs.htm, which has some other great indieweb indexes

Shocked at the exclusion of gossips web!

I have a very similar list:

- indieblog.page, gossipsweb.net, html.energy, yesterweb.org, xn--sr8hvo.ws, personalsit.es, readsomethinginteresting.com, ooh.directory

- indieweb.org, handmade.network

- 1mb.club, 512kb.club, 250kb.club, 10kbclub.com, 1kb.club

- no-js.club, js1k.com, js1024.fun

- nocss.club

- uses.tech, nownownow.com, aprilcools.club

- whimsical.club, brutalistwebsites.com, spaghetti.directory

- neocities.org

Not sure if these are all still online since it's an old list

Now we just need theindexindex (an index of indices of indie web/blog indexes). It would just have one link to this site.

Good idea, I added a list to the indieweb wiki: https://indieweb.org/indieweb_directory#Directories_of_direc...

I've added three :)

Now we need an index of indexes of indexes. I too keep such a list but it's just an Obsidian note I manually update

I also have a separate list of my favorite parts of the internet I plan to eventually turn into something like this: https://wilderness.land/ (my inspo)

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. https://codeberg.org/susam/wander#readme

> colors 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]. [0]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Reference/A...

You can do both. And then you help out people who don't know that they have a meaningful system preference (or maybe all the other sites they visit don't honour it, or maybe their web browser isn't picking it up for some reason).

This is a tangent, but what I'd really like to see is for a "movement" of sorts where site owners explicitly only allow Kagi* as the only crawler for their site. A way of saying "you know what, I've seen what Google has wrought, but they had some good ideas and utility at the start so I'd like Kagi to still crawl my site but no one else". I don't know if that's even technically possible. * I say Kagi here since they'…

"Allow"? What are they doing to do about it?
