Fun story: I built BetaList 16 years ago which was one of the first "product discovery" platforms. Years before Product Hunt, etc. I manually reviewed every submission and unfortunately often I had to tell founders that their startup didn't qualify to be included. Almost everyone would (understandably!) argue their case, but as volume increased I couldn't afford to go into a deep argument with every single founder. T…

Hey thanks for letting me spam BetaList and get a startup I worked for some decent exposure!

I have been maintaining my own metalist of directories where one can submit their indie/personal websites to. In alphabetical order, here is what it looks like right now: https://blogroll.org/ https://blogs.hn/ (by @surprisetalk) https://hnpwd.github.io/ (I am one of the maintainers) https://iii.social/ (by @freshman_dev) https://indieblog.page/ (by @splitbrain) https://kagi.com/smallweb/ (by @freediver) https://marg…

At listennotes.com , we have to delete tons of fake podcasts submitted to our site [1] why do people create fake podcasts? they want to get backlinks from all podcast directories podcasts are distributed via rss feed. and spammers/"growth hackers" put tons of links in the rss feed. and podcast hosting services (especially those allow free trials, e.g., rss.com, ) could help them one-click to distribute to a bunch of…

It looks like you require an email address just to provide a link to the podcast you listed. I don't buy that it is necessary to prevent scrapers.

Hmm, the top item on the page is Medium, and underneath the description begins with "High-authority publishing platform". That is... not the popular assessment of Medium these days. At one point, Medium and the other minimalist one whose name I can't remember (edit: it was Svbtle) were seen as high-prestige and high-signal platforms. Nowadays Medium is just AI slop and low-effort surface-level takes from people tryin…

I hate how medium articles keep showing up at top of my search results. I googled a coding problem. First link was a medium tutorial. I click and mid way, it's asking me to sign up to read more. Ugh. I sign up and then it wants me to go through a few pages of topics I'd like to choose and what not. Then I finally end up at the tutorial I was trying to read and it's blocked behind a pay wall. Wtf.

Kagi search filters. I've had medium blocked since I first signed up. Occasionally I search from other peoples machines and realize how much crap on Medium I've just forgotten about. There are a lot of things to like about Kagi but the ease of removing junk sites from search results is near the top.

Having Medium on top is a weird choice in 2026, I find. It's been years since Medium was anything but a spam platform, and with the age of LLM-generated writing the whole thing can be written off. I don't even click on any Medium links anymore, it's so rarely worth it.

I'd really like a website that submits your website to websites that lists websites that lists websites to submit your website to.

It could be a cousin to Wikipedia's List of Lists of Lists: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lists_of_lists

Does that make this a list of lists of lists of lists? https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q957#sitelinks-wikipedia
