Could be obscure hobby related or a useful underrated site.
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
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!
Very niche here, but worth a look if you’re in the market for rechargeable batteries:
Crazy detailed benchmarks and technical analysis of flashlights, batteries, and chargers.
He’s been running the site since 95. I’ve been visiting since 96 or 97. I even provided the hardcopy for the Big Lebowski shooting script which he posted a few months before the movie premiered.
My god I havent been here in a decade or more, what a dedicated fellow!
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
This one?
Yes! Oh my god! So happy to find it again!
That’s definitely https://noclip.website/
I love retro video games (and current games). And some badass implemented the rendering of several games and consoles in JavaScript just for fun, so that you can explore levels from many games right in your browser.
Note that I did say explore, not play. This website let’s you fly the camera through the level like with a “no clip cheat” (hence the site name).
It somewhat works on mobile devices in landscape mode (and maybe also “show desktop page”), but is best viewed and controlled on a PC.
Pair it with sci-hub so you can actually read the whole articles and not just abstracts.
I was sticking with the ‘one website’. Thanks for adding my second post. ;-)
Here’s another: https://libgen.is/ - Library Genesis
Any new philosophy or philosophy adjacent idea I discover and want a beginners level understanding over. Incredible stuff here.

My go to etymology website.
This is the website I never knew I needed
Ha! I’ve got a shortcut for that on my phone’s main page.
It even translates yes or no in the language of the country you live in
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!
I don’t know if it fits, but congrats, you’ve just reached the end of the internet. There’s nothing more to see.
Damn, it’s been like what, 15 years or so, since I last visited that page.
I’m not down voting you because I disagree with your pick, but because this answer needs to be at the very bottom of the thread.
