Could be obscure hobby related or a useful underrated site.
Jeg ville ønske, det var fredag 😩
Det er det i dag 😄
Det manglede da også bare! Jeg har gået og ventet på fredag siden søndag!
Never have I ever felt so welcome.
To ZOMBO COM
Am I completely out of the loop here or do I simply not understand, what is happening here?
Anything and everything. The only limit is yourself. You can do anything at zombo.com!
The site that comes to mind is Ian’s Shoelace Website. The ultimate guide about shoelaces. The most impactful/important thing for me was Ian’s Knot, the fastest and most correct way to tie a shoe. I discovered this website in the mid-2000s and have been using his method since. Anyway, it’s a fun and comprehensive website about shoelaces. https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/ianknot.htm
Well im definetely checking this while i sing a g l e t AGLET
Any new philosophy or philosophy adjacent idea I discover and want a beginners level understanding over. Incredible stuff here.

I was sticking with the ‘one website’. Thanks for adding my second post. ;-)
Here’s another: https://libgen.is/ - Library Genesis
My go to etymology website.
This is the website I never knew I needed
Fun fact: noone knows the etymology of ‘dog’.
Ha! I’ve got a shortcut for that on my phone’s main page.
Saaaame, like every other day I hear a word and start guessing where it must’ve come from and then have to go check. Today it was cashmere (from Kashmir) got it right!
Ps if you’re into this kinda thing check out the podcast lingthusiasm.
OMG I thought I was alone! Have you tried the “Words for Granted” podcast?
Yessss thats another great one! Ray Belli is a good host.
Ripped old school 3D models
Wow, kinda makes me wish I had a purpose for these…
2D sprite sheets as well, no?
I don’t know if it fits, but congrats, you’ve just reached the end of the internet. There’s nothing more to see.
Niche hobby website from the 90s that’s both really useful and still updated (somewhat) - the Parker pen penography. Look at all those pens! Genuinely the most useful source of info on the topic of old Parkers that isn’t a big hefty coffee table book. Most of it probably isn’t too interesting to non-fountain pen people, but there’s some articles about the history of Parker and their decline that might be interesting if you like economics and buisness (like the one about the Itala
Incredibly niche! And funnily enough one Ive been on before.
People talking about Windows 98 and Pentium 3 processors all day long, feels just like home.
Tells what week it is.
Well, Lemmy…
There was a website where if no messages where not sent in 24 Hours it would die, I sometimes wonder if it’s still up
