Remember when the internet felt like a giant treasure hunt instead of just… cycling through the same five apps? Yeah, me too. That’s why I started COI (Corners of Internet)—a place where I dig up weird, fun, and happy corners of the web so you don’t have to.

No algorithms. No doomscrolling. Just pure internet exploration.

If it’s cool, underrated, or a little unhinged, it goes on COI.

Check it out: www.cornersofinternet.com

Also, if you’ve got a favorite weird site, drop it below! I’m always looking for new rabbit holes to fall into.

Thank you so much, happy I found a place on the internet I could stay without being hit with random UGC ads.

This is pretty good and cool. Already found some hidden gems I didn't know about. Possible suggestion for another category is for youtube channels. Youtube's algorithm sucks now and there are only about 4 youtube channels I regularly watch. So it'll be cool to have a category to suggest good content creators on youtube .

I know this is an XY fallacy type response but you mentioned YouTube sucks now so I'd like to interject.

Use the subscriptions tab. If you only watch 4 channels, sub to those channels.

I have subbed to all of them but video recommantions on youtube aren't even related to the video or even topic nowadays I find. I get mrbeast wannabees in the related tab despite never watching them. I can't find new channels because algorithm even with no influence recommends stuff I'm not interested in unlike when youtube was first around and it recommended you content creators based on your personal watches and not the algorithm

I installed the YouTube Enhancer extension in Firefox, and hid the recommended videos. They are mostly a distraction at this point.

I find new channels mostly from crossover/collab videos on the channels I do watch.

I did think about that, but the problem with that is I might have to then feature instagram creators (Thank god TikTok is banned jk :P)

I do wanna feature some youtueb videos, idk what should I do.

I would love suggestions.

It's broken without JS. Not so old-school after all.

This seems neat.

It's not just the Internet, though. There are no more gatekeepers or water coolers and everything is fed on demand. Have you noticed that TV and movie events have slowed down to a trickle? Ever found a cool show on a streaming service and found that nobody is talking about it unless you go search for some community of five people who are super into it? Nobody is playing any games and talking about them unless they're finding them through some influencer or they're just the same four big games that have dominated the market for the better part of a decade.

That's not going to revert back with something like this, I'm afraid. We've just lost the structures that got people to share in those collective moments and I'm not sure there's a way of bringing them back. On this side of the apocalypse, anyway, so maybe that'll fix itself.

True that is why i added a section for movies (moving images) I wanna fill that up with underrated indie movie and also a section for games with unique approach to it. All that is possible to do to develop the indie creators.

I was curious to click on one of the sites (bread-on.earth), but the link appears to be dead. Is there a mechanism for reporting dead sites?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

bread on earth : they are updating their site.. It is a good site, where you could find everything about bread. They also had recipes of antient bread. I think they'll be back soon.

Maybe I will move it to draft on out site.. Well the only way to report rn maybe an email. This is a one off occurrence, maybe I will think of something if more sites are going offline often.
