My Favorite Sites
OldWeb/SmallWeb/IndieWeb Sites
Note: If your site is listed here and you'd rather it not be, let me know!
- https://ctrl-c.club/~gome/ A nice cozy design and quite a few links and written pieces that resonate with or feel relevant to me. Ctrl-C Club in general seems like a cool community.
- https://sanlive.com/ Explanation largely the same as above. A big source of inspo for me. Also a fellow fountian pen lover!
- https://ribo.zone/home/ RIBOSE! More visually flashy than the above sites. Full of great stuff across the board. Appeals to my love of biology and insects.
- https://lipu.li/?u=m15o m15o's wiki. Looks nondescript, but dig a little deeper and you'll find tons of great sites and resources for the small Web enthusiast!
Niche Online Stores
Note: None of these are affiliate links. What do I look like, some kind of sellout? These are just a few unique stores related to my various hobbies.
- TeasWeLike. A small, simple, and highly-curated selection of (mostly pu'erh) tea and teaware.
- RainbowTomatoesGarden. Your #1 source for canned fish products — particularly yummy sardines — from all over the world!
- JetPens. Maybe not *that* small or niche, but I'm a long-time customer and love their extensive selection of pens, ink, paper, stationery, and office supplies!
