I love the weird one-off internet: those tiny little fan projects made by someone with a true passion and something in their mind that’s probably hard to pronounce.
Any fun corners of the internet out there still beyond social media? Or do you build anything yourself?
Not something I’ve built, but I was reviewing my bookmarks the other day and I found this site that I don’t even know how I found to begin with: http://geacron.com/home-en/
It’s an interactive world history atlas, where you can set the year and see what territories/nations existed or were like in the past. I’m not sure how accurate the maps are, especially as you go back further in history, but it’s still fun to get a rough idea of where different groups of people were.
Not weird and not super obscure, but if you haven’t already seen this blog: https://ciechanow.ski/. Each post explains some random concept, but with interactive animations which make it intuitive and interesting.
A site compiling every existing music genres, map them, then create submaps for each genre. It’s mesmerizing
