What is the underrated website you have visited that not much people knows about?
What is the underrated website you have visited that not much people knows about?
Every music genre with examples.
50I wish they had a song lookup in addition to the artist lookup. I have so many songs in my "liked songs" list in my Spotify and it gets difficult to try to organize them into moods and flavors.
5Yes, have spent many happy wasted hours here. Good for music discovery.
3This is awesome! Thanks for sharing.
2This is something I always wanted but never thought of searching for. Thanks!
2Wow, very cool.

zombo.com. Most people don't realize you can do anything there.
48The only limit is yourself.
12da fuq?!
6Your first time? I'm jealous

html5zombo.com is better for modern browsers, now that Flash is dead.
4There's no flash on zombo.com. Unless you want there to be.

Movies and tv series. Automatically streams from a good source. I've had zero stuttering so far.
45Holy crap I can watch seasons 2-4 of Rake!!!
Thank you thank you thank you!!!
5Amazing! Great if they could also enable other audio tracks

if you see an article online but it asks for a subscription before you can read it, you can put the webpage of that article in 12ft.io and it'll give you a version you can read without such guards. The person who made it says there's a special code in those sites that doesn't block the article for search engines, as doing so would cause the google/bing/etc to block that result. So they just found that code and put it in a webpage for you
43I get it. A 12ft ladder to see over the pay wall
22I used it in the past but it stopped working for some sites.
I prefer to use archive.ph now.
14How do you get past the „I am not a robot“/capture frenzy? It used to work for me, but not anymore. I keep getting capture after capture…

Learn coding on a site that seems to get it right. Lots of information, multiple languages, and mentors to help you get past a difficult problem.
Fantastic site, highly recommended!
41You guys ever hear about this social media thing called Lemmy?
32No, tell me more.

Crontab generator was my gateway to all things 'generator'. Looking for a quick way to construct something? Google it + generator to see if someone has created a generator site for it.
9Oh how I wish I knew this existed years ago! My standard procedure is to go to systemd's doc website and spend 10 minutes looking for the option I want.

Definitely worth bookmarking. Lots of arithmetic going on there. Incredibly really.
1That is so fucking cool. Thanks

It shows you what bias(es) the news sources and articles you are reading may have.
Geocities revived.
Useful/interesting tech news.
22That last one has a community on Lemmy dedicated to it: !hackernews@derp.foo.

4https://geocities.restorativland.org/
This is a collection of salvaged original Geocities sites. There must be hundreds and hundreds of random people's homepages from the mid 90s to early 2000s. Some of them still have working links. The "Hollywood" section is the best because it has endless fan pages of 90s media and celebrities.

News and analysis (and some biting commentary) on mostly tech policy stuff. Run by the guy who coined the phrase " Streisand Effect" in a post on that site, Mike Masnick. Very insightful, apolitical, and a good way for me to keep up on topics I don't normally follow too closely. Bonus: No annoying ads
17You had me at apolitical.

Not really underrated but one that most people probably dont know, hackaday.com. Its all about hardware hacking, which is primarily people making stuff with electronics or making them do things they werent designed to do but they also have a whole heap of non electronics stuff. If you can make it, and its clever, it belongs there!
11No it has nothing to do with what it makes you think of and no I'm not sorry for ruining your work efficiency
11https://tildes.net/ and https://metafilter.com/ are both pretty good curated communities that I rarely see linked

10It's hard to comment without this being a NSFW post.

Mcstories.com already has great content, but lacking search. This site just searches mcstories.

There's some bunch of stuff but also large collection of 88x31 GIFs. It is a nice static webpage.

Do you mean "under appreciated?" I don't know of any website rating systems, so how do I know if a site's underrated?
